Famitsu says they're aiming for 2 mil (LTD).

So... they only expect to sell 200K more after a 1.8M initial shipment...

That... also doesn't sound right.


It better sell at least 2 million...

come on man, there's 4 million ps3 out there.

4.3M by DEC 20

Well 1.8 million first shipment sounds about right but once again this isn't how many will actually be on stores on the first day. But it isn't boding well for my 1.3 million to 1.5 million first week which I've been expecting for the game for quite some time. That is of course if it has a good sell through ratio.

How so? This game is guaranteed to have a high sell through in the first week.

With this many shipped, there's no way it'll do less than 1.3 million first week.

I just hope it does sales like FFX-2 did

1.4 Million Week 1 & then a  crawl to 2.4 or 2.5 Million (one of those)

including BEST it should get to 2.5 Million



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I'm thinking 1.4-1.5 first week with a lifetime of 1.9-2.1 million including a Best version. That was more of less my expectations from the beginning but I'm allowing myself a little more margin of error in case of lower sales.

Oh keep your panties on.  Meant to say it is boding well not "isn't".  Don't need to do your defense force on me haha.  I've been saying 1.5 million for quite awhile now.

lets see what happens

I'm hoping the sell out son amazon & a few reported sell outs from blogs today mean the game may sell a lot week 1

Obviously I'm not diminishing it's sales but I have to wonder how many people bought more than one copy to go with the bundle. I'm sure there are some extreme collectors who want both versions of the cover. I never really understood that mentality though, seriously it's just a picture. I'm very interested to see if Play-Asia will release their import sales figures. We already know it's the most imported game this gen.

Gaf is puzzled, they don't understand what's going on. 1.8 million is too much it seems.
