Two weeks to go for TOTK.

Wonder if we'll see another 100p+ game soon in the future.

Yea ToTK will launch big even in Japan. FF tho... looking like it will bomb for franchise standards. Maybe it will pick up later but still. Pikmin 4 has some good points even tho the game remained pretty silent.

I don't have good memory but how does this FF compare to the release of FF VIIR and FFXV on PS4 back then ?

Just look the first page for FF7R.

Oh true ! 

Looking at it now ... Welp, I just don't see this one matching close to what VIIR did so I guess the digital side of things as to pick up the slack or it's truly gonna be another declining title in the series over there

Yeah, this look so weird because FF16 is the second most wanted on famitsu after Zelda. But the preorder point doesnt match at all. I do not understand why the game didnt have 100 p already.

The Famitsu Most Wanted is just a few thousand hardcore gamers voting what they're looking forward to the most. It shouldn't be used as a source for how well games are going to do. Because if that was the case Bayonetta 3 should have sold a lot more based on it's votes and placement on the chart. Also, FF7R vs Animal Crossing New Horizons is another example where Animal Crossing always had less points than FF7R, but we all know how that ended up.

Your maybe right, I'm not sure how this all works. For me it remains an indicator. I just find it weird to see FF16 so low compared to FF15 and FF7R. The pre order point dif is huge.
