Seems it is true, though the 1.8m includes the 200k bundles (so 1.6m stand alone, 200k bundles).

Ouch. You should just give up all together with anything remotely prediction-like.

OT: If that 200k bundles is correct, expect some big meltdowns at Final Fantays 13 AND PS3 numbers that week!

Also, it seems the previous 1m+150k+150k rumor didn't actually come from Sinobi, but another amelbo blog. Which makes sense, Sinobi's pretty much always accurate.



One of Japan's biggest news sites also says 1,8m:

Overall sales for the series are now ~92m.
It'll soon top the legendary 100 million.



Looking forward to: FF Versus XIII / LBP2 / The Last Guardian / Yakuza 4 / ICO Collection

There is also another possible explanation, that those 1.3million were the initial minimum shipments, to be supplemented according to effective demand and estimates from users and retailers polls, so, at the moment of deciding the first two weeks further shipments, they arrived to that sum. And let's not forget that Xmas this year falls on Friday, so there's still a large part of Xmas week for late purchases, this will help every HW and SW sales, with the biggest hitters limited only by availability.
