WKC should be able to get that 1 M WW LTD. I expect it to sell 400-500k LTD in Japan alone so NA+others should at least sell another 500k.

 

Why 500k in NA/Others? .. even JRPG's on the 360 don't do great in NA let alone on the PS3. Much the same situation in Others too.

Becouse other jrpg tend to get more sales from NA+Others combined than from Japan:

IU: 120k Japan 290k rest

TLR: 140k in Japan, 260k rest

ToV: 160k in Japan 110k in NA still not released in Pal regions

I wanted to add ES (PS3) numbers but VG chartz doesn't have them :)

So far most jRPG on HDconsoles sold as much copies in non Japan than they did in Japan why should WKC be exception ?

UGH! have you even thought about what you just said? Look at the userbase comparisons. The 360 has more than 17 x the userbase in NA than in Japan and over 10x the userbase in Others than Japan. The PS3 only has under 3 x the userbase in NA than in Japan and just under 4 x the userbase in Others than in Japan .... How do you expect a JRPG to sell better on the PS3 than the 360 in North America when the 360 has double the userbase??

Has anyone mentioned Need for Speed: Uncover? It's a definite million seller.

 

hmm that's odd i coulda sworn it was there, i'll add  it.

FF13 will definitely make a million by the end of 2009, when it launches in Japan. A million first week, probably.

If Gran Turismo 5 were to launch in 2009, it would do over 2.5 million first week (you might want to put "if released" at the right.

I would put Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 as definite.

inFamous as Possible

Don't put WKC at all

If Versus XIII makes it out in Japan in 2009, that's Definite as well.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves should be Possible as well. Could change in the future to likely.



i can't be certain that ff13 will break a million or that gt5 or uncharted  will drop in '.09

 

 

 

Wait, this is million sellers? LTD? All of the games I listed will cross 1 million. How can you think FF Versus XIII won't cross a million? Please show me the last FF RPG that has not crossed 1 million sales. It will do that in Japan alone, possible on opening week.

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.

PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.

That would be true for typical genres like FPS but imho for JRPG there's pretty defined, dedicated and limited userbase which buys them. So even if PS3 had 50 milions more users in west it wouldn't increase sales proportionally.

by the end of '09

 




^You don't think Uncharted will arrive in 2009? What?
It's scheduled for Q4, though, so it might not have time to reach a million unless it has a fantastic opening week.

And Versus XIII will definitely sell a million in Japan by year's end. So will FF13.

Again I ask how do you expect a JRPG to sell better on the PS3 than the 360 in North America when the 360 has double the userbase??
