360

07/26The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

The biggest one seems to be minna no golf 5, but Mario Party 8 and gundam 0079 could make some waves.  Dewy's adventure and Guilty gear are gonna sell decent too (probably 25k or so each), and Oblivion is gonna keep the 360 on the map.

I'm really curious how well the gundam game is going to do for Wii, I think it is the FPS one?

The big story though is gonna be how much minna no golf sells, and how many consoles it can move.

Im going to say (in order of sales), the huge titles are gonna be:

Hot Shots Golf ~ 200k
Mario Party 8 ~ 150k
Oblivion ~ 70k
Gundam Wii ~ 65k

+ lots for the other games. It surely is going to be an ungodly week. Even the PS2 lineup looks good. Wii s/w will be very very interesting too. MP8 is guarenteed to break 100k unless something wierd happens, but Dewy's Adventure and Gundam could surprise, or bomb entirely.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

it would be nothing short of a miracle if HSG sells 200k imo. But i sure hope so, Sony (and me, haha) need some positive PS3 Japan news.



Is a golf game really going to sell people the console?



mrstickball are those first week sales??? Oblivion sell 70k in it's first week???! No way in hell it's gonna happen on 360, not even if it was on PS2, Wii, or DS. If those are lifetime then you have the other 3 besides oblivion too low.

Should be an interesting week.



i think gundam will sell a lot more than 65k in the first week.

"Wii are legion, for Wii are many"

johnsobas - Preorders for Oblivion have out-paced Trusty Bell's. TB launched with 50k, so 70k is possible. Believe!

Either way, all the titles are up in the air, Oblivion could do as low as 50k, but could hit 80k, who knows.

The Wii titles are low, primarily because every game I thought would do well, save DQS has done very poorly first week (Harvest Moon, One Piece Unltd. Adventure, ect). Like I said, they could do alot better. MP8 is a mystery, it could do 250k+, but what I gave was conservative.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Ps3 will increase in sales slightly maybe getting into the 30k mark in japan hot shots golf wil sell better by itself.

I'll believe it when I see it, 70k is close to Blue Dragon level sales.
