Those are crazy high numbers you guys are predicting for FFXIII.

So you're expecting more like 1.5-1.9 LTD?

I don't know, it just seems high... Has any other PS3 game even broken the million barrier in Japan yet?

Nop

Top selling ps3 games in japan

  1. MGS4 - 0.71m
  2. GT5 Prologue  - 0.57m
  3. Minna no Golf 5 - 0.51m
  4. RE5 - 0.50m

 

See, that's exactly what I mean. And I doubt FFXIII will be half as good of a game as MGS4. But then again, quality doesn't always (if ever) equal sales.

I still think 1.5M is ridiculously high.

The Final Fantasy franchise is much,much bigger than the MGS franchise...

Plus its a JRPG,so thats a plus too.

1.5 months ago,the preorders were over 450.000 in Japan.

And that my friend is already MGS4's first week...

Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

Final Fantasy XIII FW - 850,000 to 1,150,000 looks realistic... 1.25m to 1.65m LTD

So you are pretty much predicting that almost a million of fans have leaved the franchise since 2006?

I guess that not everyone of them has a PS3, but shouldn't be this the game for them to buy a PS3? It's not like there is something similar on the market which could take it's sales away.
