Oh well. I'll get RoF and AT3 when they get their localizations. Don't know about Last Rebellion.

I think AT3 will do better than ROF (on PS3) in Japan.

No way. RoF will probably have massive marketing, it has obviously a bigger budget, looks better and it's made by a bigger developer and publisher (Tri-Ace/Sega). If they're smart, it could easily reach White Knight Chronicles-like sales.

For all we know it can blow FXIII out of the waters,

Ar Tonelico III has undressing, thats gonna sell tons in Japan

But yea, I think RoF is gonna outsell it. But I don't think its gonna sell 1m across both platforms (in Japan).

I'm not saying that AT 3 will hit a million, just that Resonance of Fate will sell ok ending with around 700-850k lifetime. I think it could similar numbers to Eternal Sonata in Japan. Higher than that of course, but around 250-300k from Japan (both versions combined)

The gameplay design of RoF is obviously aiming the western market.  And from I read, the RPG fans in Japan/Asia are more excited about AT3.

One can argue those people are "core" gamers, but again, I don't think the "casual" gamers over there want to play a "shooting" RPG, i.e. RoF.

Last Rebellion is sent to die, that's for sure.

Which number. I said 700-850 worldwide and 250-300k from Japan.

I think my Japan is probably inflated a little bit. This is by no means a final prediction.

i look at the preorder ranking and what people said on the forum over there.  i am not biased toward either of them.

besides, AT3 was announced much later than RoF, so it will affect its ranking at the famitsu most wanted list.

i know you are a big fan of RoF, but we haven't really seen that much gameplay of RoF yet.  don't forget that new IP tends to struggle in Japan (that means low 1st week #).  on the other hand, AT3 is looking really good so far and it seems to be greatly improved over AT2. 

let's wait until the end of January to find out :)
