Oh just 2.5 Mio+ for NSMB that will piss of the guy which sayed that FF 13 will be just 1.5 Mio because Famitsu said it. Now he has to accept that NSMB WII will be just 2.5 Mio or a little more because Famitsu said it.

 

Just looked it was Avinashi he said to me that its a fact FF13 wont be as huge as I think. And the PS3 wont have a chance over the WII in Japan over Christmas and that is unlikely FF will never sell so many Consoles. But WII will sell Millions and New Super Mario Bros will be gigantic I said then on Home Consoles the demand for the same games is different as on the handhelds. Then I said look at Monster Hunter on PSP and then On Wii.  No NSMB Wii will be gigantic and FF 13 will be small because Famitsu said it. I still believe they are wrong with FF 13 but I am curios what he will say now that Famitsu said just 2.5 Mio he has to accept it. Because Famitsu has more knowledge about the Japanese market then a single person from a Forum. How can I dare doubt the FF 13 Numbers of Famitsu how can he doubt now the Famitus Numbers of NSMB WII.

 

I think he will say they definetly wrote a plus and that can be much more then 2.5 Mio more like 4-5 Mio.


   Actually you are wrong, if they meant between 2.5 million and 3 million they would have said it, just like they say with their other stuff, when they say 2.5+ million, they mean between 2.5 million and Infinity, as in they have no idea what its upper limit will be, they said 1.8 million+ with Wii Fit plus, because they knew Wii fit Plus would outsell 1.8 million



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

the forecast for Phantasy Star Portable 2 is lowered by a lot...



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

So people are refusing to believe them because they got two predictions wrong?

You do realise that Famitsu does not actually have a crystal ball?



They're predicting under a million for the first shipment?

When will be finding out if that's true?



does the FF13 sales include bundles???
