Can Demon's Souls reach 1 million. Legs are holding on nicely and the Holidays shouls see a large boost for it.
If the game ever releases in "Others" then the chances are much higher t could there still be a chance.
What will the game reach in two years?
Discuss.

hm, i would be very happy if it happens, but i dont think so, not even with a european release.
(i think 500-550k in NA+JP, and maybe 700-750k with EU/Others.)



I'm a Foreigner, and as such, i am grateful for everyone pointing out any mistakes in my english posted above - only this way i'll be able to improve. thank you!

I think this game will start selling based off word of mouth, it may take another 3-5 months but I think it will hit at least 1 million.

I would very much like it to, but I don't think it will.

I think it can reach a million if it gets an official release in Others. If it doesn't, not a chance.

There wasn't enough advertisment for it. If they decide to release it in Europe (Other) and advertise it a little, it might reach 1 million. If not, then it won't reach it.

The game is also labeled as "hardcore" which doesn't help the cause.

The word of mouth for this game is amazing. Ive gotten 5 people to purchase it and Im sure others have done the same. The legs are amazing, in the 7th week in the US and still over 2nd week sales in Japan is impressive. Im thinking 750k max in the US and Japan and the 1 million mark could be hit if its released in Others.

I'd really like a european release

105k for NA release is just damn impressive now that I look at it.

It could certainly sell another 100k in NA, but even with a EU release I think it would be pretty far off.

Sony must be surprised at it's success, and annoyed they didn't man up and publish it themselves.

Sony should step up and publish this in EU. It'll be pure profit, and I'd buy it day one.
