Given how poorly other JRPGs have done, I don't think FFXIII will revive the market - just be a momentary blip that says 'hey, Americans buy JRPGs once in awhile!'. It won't lead to greater JRPG adoption, I think. I guess us Americans only prefer a few big ones rather than buy the smaller, really good ones, too.

ohh shit...i'm pretty sure last time i checked it was 900,000.

solid numbers would be very useful i dont know what the top ten sales were like in 2003

it was but vgc overtracked the game in the long run.

FF13 will revive the JRPG market in America

@mrstickball

as I expected

roughly half of the peoplr are being lost with SO4 (assuming SO4 could do 111K if it had 30 days)

wasnt so3 a spring release? why are those numbers from sept?

going to look at release date now

ok i was 1/3 right feb launch for japan fall launch for the others

SO3 launched August 31st, 2004 in NA.

The numbers Stickball posted do make things look a bit better though, although I will wait until March NPD to give an opinion. I want to see how the legs on this game ride out.
