Some people thought it would sell 1.5M LTD.. ?

8 million ltd sales for FFXIII:
PS3 version = 6 million. (3 million Japan + 3 million Non Japan)
XBox 360 version = 2 million maximum. 1.5 million most likely not released in Japan.



I bet it doesn't sell 10 million.
If I'm wrong I will request a month ban then after that I will allow the winner to control my sig and avatar for 2 months and vice versa.

That figure of 1.5 million would  be the total sales for the XBox 360 version of FFXIII.

The first week sales of FFXIII in Japan should exceed 1.5 million sales and 300k PS3s could be sold in Japan for the first full week of FFXIII launch.

200k FFXIII limited edition PS3 bundles were apparently sold out within hours on the launch day of FFXIII.

This is apparently not true base on smbu2000's experience

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.

i think when FF7 released on the PSN it kicked in almost 200k? I believe its still on the top selling list



wow, A LOT of people will get owned sooo badly.

There are people honestly thinking this game won't do 6 million??? It will do 6 million first month. Mark my words



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

: Too Human I even expect 3-4 mill entire life and 500,000 first day. GoW2 ( expect 7 - 9 million entire life and over 2 mill first day), Fable 2 (expect 5-6 million entire life and 1.5 mill fist day) BK3 (expect 4 - 5 mill sales entire life and 1 mill first day).. Tales/IU/TLR should get to 2 or 3 million! post id: 868878

Letsdance: FFXIII (PS3+360) first week in NA = 286K
According to pre-order rate in week 13 (post id: 2902544)

Man I love prediction threads. So much complete guess work with no real reason why this or that prediction makes sense. FFXIII is probably first FF since FFX to possibly have a chance of beating FFVII but who really knows what the sales will be like.

It's probably going to do 6 million lifetime. 10 million is ridiculous, FFX couldn't do it and JRPGs were a lot more popular in the west than they are now that's fo sho.

I assume you mean with aligned launches...? Because otherwise that's the worst prediction ever.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
