so this is a massive amount of preorders.. with dq fever in full swing in japan. how much do you all expect this game top sell?

first week sales?

and life time sales?

So, it's likely that it'll do 2.5M first week?

It would be insane if it hit 3 million.......highest probable though would be 2.7M.

Anyways thats huge wonder if it will beat VII. It has everything going for it.

It will beat FFVII (2 million), that is pretty much guarenteed by now

It probably won't quite match FFVIII (2.6 million) though

Edit: Or were you talking about DQVII?

I was talking DQVII sales in Japan since its the best selling DQ game in Japan and its outsold every FF game in Japan.

Really i didnt know it outsold every final fantasy game in Japan. Why do the japanese like that series more than final fantasy the battle systems a lil lacking and the stories from the ones ive played werent that good. Matbe they like the grinding

o_O I hope Square has enough copies, Nintendo had to delay Brawl cause they didn't have enough copies to fill preorders... and carts are harder to produce then discs

Well now, it looks like we have a clear winner on our hands. Wonder how long the storm will last...

Or maybe, JUST maybe, they have a different opinion than you :P.

3rd party games do not sell on Nintendo systems.
