So it's going to outsell every other 360 game that has been released in Japan despite being a western game?

Know that I'm sincere when I say that your predictions are awful.

 

 do a little research and you will see that banjo 1 and 2 sold really well there despite being a "western title"...the game will outsell all othe previous 360 games first week

And Banjo 1 and 2 were both outsold by various other titles on the N64, both worldwide and in Japan.

Do a little research next time.

Matt: Someone already posted that. It proves very little. I could probably argue that by the look of their facial expressions, the game will flop in Japan.

So did you do any research to see that despite the fact the N64 had sold millions more than the 360, neither of the first two BK games sold more than 60k first week in Japan.  Also the second game only sold half as much as the first.

Did you notice the best selling 360 game sold 210k?  Did you notice those games have a lot more appeal in the Japanese market than BK?  If you really believe this, I wonder what your Tales of Vesperia predictions were.

I doubt it'll even sell 100k in Japan.

That's a bit too high for Japan 300k... that means almost half of every 360 owner would buy it. I thought Tales itself was amazing enough to do 250k in Japan alone that means 1 of every 3 Xbox owners has ToV. GTA4 can I quote you on that BK won't break 300k worldwide? You're being sarcastic right?
