I think this is exactly where it'll end up.  Should get another 400k or so shipment imo, then nothing until the International version late next year or 2011 (though that release will likely be on 360 also).

For Final Fantasy X, I don't think international version did that much, but a 360 international version might do something.

Edit: The 360 version won't do that much, but still every little bit counts.

Worse Case: 1,919,661 (based on Final Fantasy XII)
Best Case: 2,442,474 (based on Final Fantasy VII)
Final Fantasy X Case: 2,015,325 (based on Final Fantasy X)
Hopefully my math is right.


Final Fantasy XIII will sell more in next weeks than other FFs because a lot of people in Japan don't have a PS3 yet.

So I guess that fist week is 55% of LTD sales... final sales will be a little over 2,5 million.

IMO.

I'll eat my socks if that happens (it wont).

International and budget sales for the PS2 iterations (ltd only, most didn't chart 1st week)...


31/01/02 [PS2] Final Fantasy X International (Square) - 240.940 
16/01/03 [PS2] Final Fantasy X (Mega Hits) (Square) - 199.249
19/02/04 [PS2] Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission (Square Enix) - 288.745
08/09/05 [PS2] Final Fantasy X (Ultimate Hits) (Square Enix) - 179.959
08/09/05 [PS2] Final Fantasy X-2 (Ultimate Hits) (Square Enix) - 44.887
08/09/05 [PS2] Final Fantasy X + X-2 (Ultimate Hits) (Square Enix) - 25.784
25/01/07 [PS2] Final Fantasy X International (Ultimate Hits) (Square Enix) - 47.676
08/09/07 [PS2] Final Fantasy XII International Zodiac Job System (Square Enix) - 137.040

 

... I think an International version of FFXIII might do 100-200k each on PS3 and 360.  360 should hold up better since it'd be the first release on that system.

(DQIX) Y13,982,561,580 = $150,836,694 ($1=Y92.68) MSRP: Y5980

FFXIII ever so slightly beat DQIX in terms of revenue, however dragon quest is more profitable.

Either way, it's one hell of a year for Square Enix!

FFXIII on PS3 had highest opening week for a home console game this gen in Japan.

PS3 sold almost 250k during FFXIII release week in Japan. Great sales.

People doubted that Final Fantasy would be the biggest JRPG release in a long time? The only thing that can top it is Dragon Quest and possibly Pokemon (which would need a console release to qualify here).

If we're counting handhelds, then Pocket Monsters (5.5m+), Dragon Quest (4m+) and Monster Hunter (3.5m+) all come in far ahead.  On consoles, it'll just be Dragon Quest (likely 3.5m+) though.

I still seeing FF XIII to do 2.3 million and TBH I am not really that impress with first week numbers (It doesn't mean it's not a great sales from FF XIII) and I also expect it to be on 1.5-1.6 range. I will be happy if FF XIII outsell FF XII in Japan so in order to do that. It has to sell 500k this week and another 200k next week.

Lol it actually happened. FFXIII is finally released after 4 years, with huuuuge numbers. Remember when people were saying it wont even top 120-150k hardware-wise in Japan?
