Forums - Sales Discussion - Japan sales for the first and second half of 07

As we know that MH 2 sold the most for the 1st half.

Does anyone think that the second half could also belong to a PSP game????
Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core is being released on September 13.

Thoughts?

Sept 13 in the U.S?

MH 2?

None of the PSP FF games have had big brother like sales. Not even the FF games on DS beat out MH2 so why expect the PSP with a far smaller install base and a smaller FF base to sell better than MH2?

Galaxy will sell best this year.

I think FF7 CC has a chance of being the best selling psp game or games on any system this year, and boost psp sales as well, its bundled with the NEW psp and its in stores, It has a great chance.

Leo, someone said a moment ago that you live in your own world. I'm starting to think they may have been correct.

You believe FFCC will outsell Mario Galaxy?

He's talking about Crisis Core, not Crystal Chronicles.

I don't think (and honestly I hope this is the case) the FF7 hype is alive enough to drive the kind of sales you're shooting for, Leo.

It depends, we all know that final fantasy does very well in japan, if the bundle helps, we might see it selling best than any game this year, does anyone know when its coming out in NA?

Very true, Final Fantasy is big business.

I know he's talking about Crisis core, I just didn't put the VII between FF and CC. I still don't' see how some expect to see such a dramatic sales increase over current FF titles on PSP to the degree that it will outsell Super Mario Galaxy.
