Bets with Conegamer:
Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.
% wise it dropped more than PS3, but thats been the case in 2009, 2008, and 2007 too I think. Have to look.

You are assuming there will be International and Best of releases. Famitsu made the prediction on the current version that's being released, not any other version that has not been announced.
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.

The reason they're usually separated is that they require added content and (usually) remarketing. There are notable added expenses, so just lumping them in as added sales isn't exactly fair.
FFXIII still did better than most were expecting, though. Combined with the underwhelming Tales of Graces sales (I consider Tales of to be a very FF-centric franchise), I think it's reasonable to say that the FF fanbase has moved on to the PS3 nearly wholesale.

Meh, fine, FF13 still cleared LT predictions of famitsu in 2 days so whatever.
FF13 trending with X-2 is amazing and will surely sell 2 million before the international or best of releases hit.

To be fair famitsu was pretty bad at predicting the sales of the games this holiday season. NSMB wii they had at 2.5 million, it's almost there already. They had SW3 at 120-170k and it's probably gonna end up at like 300k., even ToG a game that most people said bombed is probably gonna beat the famitsu predictions. Bayonetta predicted 120-160k, and it is already at 205k. Wii Fit Plus has only 400k more to go, it'll easily crush that. Phantasy Star Portable 2 is already 100k over their predictions. Inazuma Eleven was off by like 700-800k.
They were too low on almost all the games.
currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X
Honestly I don't think it is Famitsu predicting the games, I think it is Famitsu asking analysts to predict the games. Famitsu itself has data going back into the 1980s - they know their stuff.

Agreed. But i dont care about those games so i didnt comment :)
However, totally surpasing LT expectation in 2 days is pretty insane, the titles you mentioned will exceed them....eventually....n ot surpassed in 2 days.
Still i agree, but its more distinct with FF13, and i care about that game, thus i commented.

If you had something more concrete id be interested.....as far as i know its not specified in table form Analyst A predicts X Analyst B predicts X.....it seems they use the numbers or publish the prediction under their endoresment, but i dont know to be honest.
ToG back to top 30
thats good
