There's no way GT5 sells 500K week 1 in Japan, no way in hell.

That's what ioi said.

So? I'm betting 300K max. 500K LTD.

GT 5 Prologue : Japan 570k... LOL

thats not even including PSN sales.

Just FYI.

Media Create numbers

GT5P - 108,040 FW 239K LTD

GT5P Spec III (which is bundled with PS3) - 295K LTD

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.

Is anyone even aware that COMG doesn't track preorders for the bundle? Just tack on another 125k-175k to whatever you think GT5 is going to do first week.

This bodes very well for Kirby's epic yarn, some people will be laughing at kirby for not charting at all but could do 200,000 first week! I reckon we can lay our worries to rest.

I think this is going to keep some people's doom mouth shut, but I'm still concerned if people are going to accept Kirby new style, it might be a negative (kinda like Yoshi's Island for the SNES).

Above: still the best game of the year.

Wow. So all is good then?

Maybe we should be more worried if Kirby actually had lots of pre-orders!

I guessing somewhere between 100k-200k first week, and it'll climb to over 800k lifetime (possibly past 1m even). Kirby games seem to have insane legs, some more previous sales...

Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland (GBA)

1st week: 189,843
LTD: 832,901

Kirby & the Amazing Mirror (GBA)

1st week: 176,225
LTD: 704,295

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (N64)

1st week: 245,508
LTD: 882,230

There really weren't too many people dooming the game lol. It was mostly Nintendogamer and kopstudent fretting that the game might not sell well. I told them it would be fine! lol
