Mrstickball Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 When do presales start for FF8, and what comparables are going to be out there? Warcraft is the only one I can think of that went on sale 2 weeks prior to release that did well (at least starting out). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcraft is the only one I can think of that went on sale 2 weeks prior to release that did well (at least starting out). Could start tomorrow. WC rolled up big in 3 days but then increased 10% daily until 2 days before OD. Both BatB and Kong went up 22% daily after the 3rd day of PS. If it starts tomorrow I think it won't jump up like WC but bigger than Kong in its first 3 days and probably has similar daily increases. My prediction if it starts tomorrow afternoon. Pops to 4m by Monday evening (Kong got to 1.8m) then does 20x that for a final PS number. 80m PS 300m OD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) If it only makes 300M od, the high end for its total would be 2.5B(drop in USD from FF7). Edited March 29, 2017 by Olive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're expecting more?. I thought the death of PW boosted the last one and made it a phenomenon. KFP3 was expected to do 3-4x KFP2 based on market growth but only increased 60%. KFP2 did more than double of any toon at the time. It was a phenom. No HLWD movie has cleared 1.5B since FF7. There hasn't been market growth since then. Like TA1/TA2 in domestic and other phenoms. I could see a drop off. Hard to beat a record number. It's just a guess but I think it could be 300od/975ow/2000total. It'll need a 9.4 rating to get higher.

POTUS 2020 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Ff8 is listed for sale. It will be interesting. Let's see how quick it climbs to 1m. WC shot to 5m in 24 hours. Biggest frontload PS ever. Kong took a day and a half to get to 1m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I am thinking OD will be higher like 350m. Then saturday breaks single day BO record and 3 Day BO would be around 1.1B. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POTUS 2020 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) They just added 2000 show and PS on the move finally. yesterday was a false start. Shows PS 1500 2k 11k 1600 4.7k 170k 1700 7.5k 300k 1800 11k 550k 1900 14k 873k 2000 15k 1.37m 2100 17k 1.58m 2300 19k 1.84m Days OD Out WC PSm 14 5.1 50 13 8.7 29 12 12.0 21 11 15.0 16.6 WC was extremely front loaded. FF8 will out perform WC multies. Just a base line guide here. I think Kong may be better to look at. Got to 1.8m Monday night. PS went on to 20x and OD was 80x. I'll have an OD projection in a few hours Edited March 31, 2017 by POTUS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
