What is this about people saying WKC was going to be the "PS3s Final Fantasy VII"?

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

so from the 68k PS3s sold, im guessing 60k of them were the GT5p bundle? holy crap.

That's because the standard PS3 now comes with GT5:P bundled for free, there is no longer a non-bundled PS3 for sale in Japan. The other 8k will be premium bundles such as LBP, WE 09 etc.

Smart move, they should bundle MNG5 and Ratchet as well IMO.

@ Eurphoria

People have tried and will try to make the PS3 look bad as possible.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

@ bigjon

68k +20k *2 =\= 141k

Everything isn't doing very well HW wise.

Joysound and Drum Masters are both holding very well and should be great 3rd party successes for Wii - which is far overdue in Japan (outside of JRPGs)

Nobody should be hating on the PS3 sales right now. I remember not too long ago when PS3 struggled to hit 8K per week and people were talking doom and gloom for PS3 in Japan. Now I think it has been about 2+ months now where PS3 has sold over 30k+ per week.

Am I right? I swear, no matter how good PS3 does it always has someone to try and bring it down.

For those saying WKC isn't hitting expectations or saying "many predicted 90K". They predicted that when they saw the 80K figure on the preview and the fact that WiiFit sold 70k+ and WKC was 2 spots above it. If you look at the VGChartz prediction league however I think the average was somewhere around 45k for this week.

Best way for me to say this is "Don't try bringing that shit in here".

*applause* and agreed.

@DmeisterJ and CGI-Quality

It's no big deal really, I just used the same information on VGChartz that is available to each and every person on the site.

It's not my fault if some others were too *insert word for me* to look before talking shit.

I had someone today in another thread tell me that I must have short-term memory, right now not only does it seem like my short-term memory is fine but also that I prefer people to stop playing dumb and start playing fair.

not better hanpredictions?

How about these?

Are we assuming it's going to do better than Valkyria Chronicles?

Hell, I'll predict 250k worldwide

hmmm

80k - firstday

145k - first week

I'm gonna say 150k first week Japan, total 250k.

89k

1st week - 150k in Japan

Around 120 k first week, don't think it will do too well, very old fashioned game.

i'll be conservative and guess 130k first week.

Japan: 200k LTD

And trust me there is more.
