What is going on with Armored Core 5 ? It is not a franchise I'm familiar with, and from looking up the previous games it doesn't look like they have ever done big numbers. But the PS3 version seems to be doing pretty well here. Is this game expected to open bugger than other games in the series?

Tales of Innocence will be the biggest release for the Vita in Japan so far. I would like to see the weekly increases start averaging (at least) 10 points. But that won't be happening.

Nobody knows that.

You can compare the points of a previous game from the same series to predict how much a game is going to sell. For example Love Plus (DS) with New Love Plus(3DS), but that still wouldn't be good enough because you also have to consider the userbase and other things.

I tried to contact the COMGNet staff last year to asked them if there is any correspondance between points and preorders but I didn't get an answer.

Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?
