Japan First Day Sales (10/23)

Looks like we have a few potential bombs in the japan round. We are predicting the second week for these games, so use these numbers to help with your first week estimate before guessing what second week would come out as.

Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (Konami) - 14k

- Other titles sold below 10k. Bleach: Soul Carnival (PSP) and Tenchu 4 (Wii) with 20-30% sell-through.

Japan First Day Sales (10/23)

When are these rounds closed?

Normal time, Tuesday before the close date at 11:59 PM EST. So it would be this Tuesday Oct 28.

I say 500,000 first week in NA. I'm hoping for 75,000 for Japan, but Japan is a wierd market. It could do even better or completely crap out. I don't know the state of the marketing over there.

300k US 75k Jpn

Japan 150k
Us 300k

600k US
200k Japan

Has anybody noticed that the average predicted 360 sales in Japan is 225,333?

EDIT: I see. Somebody accidentally (He also put PS3 at 1 sale) predicted 2 million for 360. Lol.

These Japan numbers are way too high.

I'll go with 400k US, 110k Japan. Conservatively. Maybe way off though. It's a wildcard.
