Final Fantasy XIII Sales Tops 1 Million
Figures of the Day 1 sales of long-awaited Final Fantasy XIII is in, and oh boy, it exceeded the one million mark, as announced by Square Enix.
However, the actual number of people with the game might be more than 1 million, as the number of people who bought the Limited Edition FF13 PS3 set were not included into the figure. It is also unknown how many units of this set were made available for sale. Currently, the Lightning Bundle is available for sale in my country too, with local warranty. So cool eh? ^^
For a PlayStation 3 game, one million sales is a major feat. Prior to this, no PS3 game had reached the mark domestically. The previous top selling game for the platform was Konami’s Metal Gear Solid 4. Also, Square Enix said that FFXIII had seen an initial shipment of 1.8 million units. CEO Yoichi Wada is hoping that the game will cross two million sales.
Well, it’s not possible, just give us Japanese voice overs with English subtitles! =X.

indeed, it would be really great if it is jap dub with english subtitle. i hope the ppl of square enix will understand this
I agree if I got to play it in Japanese with english subtitles I would have bought it. Well that and the fact I still have not gotten my long wanted ps3
if they promised to include the japanese voices/theme song as an add-on and sold a custom ff13 ps3 in the states right now, i’d shell out 300 in a split second, even when i have doubts that i’d want a custom ps3 if the game bombs in my opinion.
After seeing some early reaction to FF13, I’m not feeling quite so bad about not being able to play it anytime soon. :(
