I'm going to be optimistic here because so much is riding on this game for fans of traditional, epic JRPG's that don't think that game developers need to "fix what isn't broken."  I'm sick of them trying to reinvent the wheel when it's perfect the way it is.

So:

160,000 First Day

250,000 First Week

600,000 Lifetime

Only thing that makes me think it may not have a chance now is because of the shitty famitsu review...but I think most people that are going to buy this game have been planning on buying it for a LONG, LONG time and one review isn't going to change that.

68K first day.
93k first week.
175k Japan Lifetime.
350-400k WW Lifetime.

55k.

250,000 FIRST DAY!!!!!!!!!

105k first day and 350k MAX LT in Japan.

I rlly think it is going to sell nice numbers. End of month, perfect game for Japanese kids if they have PS3. I don't think review will affect it that much. It has been marketed a lot for basically 2 years has been on mind of gamers.

175k First day.

Around 100k, and 170k for the week.

Seems white knight was selling for 9800 yen..over 100 Us dollars.......right now theres one copy left for that price...thats insane

Famitsu gave it not so great scores. That is a death sentence in Japan.
