Forums - Sony - How many copies of Final Fantasy XIII do you Expect to Be Sold in Japan?

Holy crap. People need to start the site as a resource.


There is no way in hell that this is going to sell 3 million. Anything higher than 2.8 is really pushing it into CrazzyMan/John Lucas area.

I'm guess 1.4 million first week/2.2 million lifetime.

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

I'm really expectin a massive hardware rise of about 250k. The userbase just isnt there to support 1.5m first week unless systems fly too. FF is guaranteed 1.2m plus week one so the hardware will HAVE to be big.



Ynwa.

I've been saying it for a loooong time:

2 million week 1.

Yes, you heard me correctly. 2 million. Week 1.



3 million is impossible for FFXIII however it will breeze past 2 million. First flagship title in 5 years so I would say 1.3 million first week and 2.1 million lifetime. Rest assured the game will be bundled because it is indeed a "system seller."



 

3 million it's posible.
but not now, FF have in japan a high tie ratio sales.
just look at FF7 or 10 when it was released.



Around the Network

1.7-2 million. There will be bundles, obviously.



2.2 million

But this will be big in the west

it will have a FF7 effect in the west

FF13 ps360 combined will sell 12 million units worldwide



ioi said:
1.2m week 1 and might just crawl to 2m lifetime with budget releases etc.

How are the pre-orders? How do they compare to other big games (MGS 4, RE5, DQ IX, MH 3, ...)?



at least 2.5 mill



400 million.

[okay really 2 million total]
