I don't understand something here....

People are posting their predictions for PS3 and 360 versions, and then when it goes to being multiplat, invisible sales are coming out of thin air!

Stop with the magic tricks! Where do multiplats get their secret ghost sales?!

Tell me!

Because Gearbox = Toolbox!

I just saw "Gearbox" next to the thread title, and I already knew his post without reading it.

"I want KH3 on PS3

I predict

minus zero million for a Wii exclusive

357 terabazillion for a PS3 exclusive OBVIOUSLY THE BEST

Kingdom Hearts 1 did it, right? KH is almost as big as Final Fantasy. Almost.

Almost? like half of it. KH2 did far less.

The PS3 userbase is also not all PS2 owners, and is smaller. It won't get even 3.

 



it would sell 2-3 million on Ps3 or Xbox360 (little more on Ps3)

3-4 on both Xbox360/Ps3

about Wii, is very unpredictable, if they make it as they should, it can reach 3-4 milion and more, if not maybe 2 million the least



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

6 millions if PS360.
7 millions if Wii

10-13 millions if Wii exclusive with some Nintendo characters/worlds.

Actually I believe that Kingdom Hearts is the bestselling North American RPG of all time

 



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

^Umm, so? it doesn't have the userbase to back it.

Do you mean best selling in Americas? If so, you're incorrect. 6 of the Pokemon games beat it. And if you count WoW, I believe it has passed it as well. It does have the 7th/8th spot though.

if it is a wii exclusive? - i no a lot might disagree with this but i dont think it would sell to well. look at 3rd party success.. maybe if they advertise it like crazy then i could c it sell like 5 million at most

if it is a ps3 exclusive? - humm 1 million in japan doesnt seem possible but worldwide it could sell like 4 -6 million!

if it is 360 exclusive? - wouldnt sell that great.. maybe 1 to 2 million

if it is a ps360 exclsuive? - obviosuly the best choice, would sell like 8 - 9 million! 

what console do u want it to go on? I'd prefer a ps3 exlcusive that way, they could make it look so much better and do amazing cut scenes, like the quality of the intro and outtro cutscenes. (i dont think u can do that on a 360 but only because of size constraints on the disk)

Your post makes no sense.

First you say that a game that will sell 5m and is cheaper to make is a better option than a game that will sell 6m tops and is a lot more expensive to make. Even with marketing, it should still be cheaper or even for the Wii. Also, the 3rd party games don't sell argument is really lame. Looking at Tales of series since it is a action RPG, Symphonia:DoTNW sold better on Wii than Vesperia on 360 in all regions released so far. On top of that Vesperia was supposed to be the significantly better game. Overall Wii is obviously capable of selling games from any publisher, but they must be good and mainstream.

Secondly, you state that it will sell 4-6m on PS3 alone, and 1-2m on X360 alone. But somehow you have 8-9m on both combined. If we just combined your original numbers we would get 5-8m. So where does this extra confidence in high sales come from? X360 owners just buy the game so their system sells more copies than the PS3 version?




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

What are these crazy predictions? KH1 sold 5.5 mil and KH2 sold 3.70 mil. Thats one the ps2. So anything saying "7 mil +" is absurd.

With Wii exclusive I would expect prolly 3-3.5 mil
PS3 exclusive would be 1.6 mil
X360: 1 mil
HD multiplat 2.4 mil

These are more realistic.
