    If you read my news on my website ( https://victory-road.net/ ) you will see that Nintendo announced they will only make 500,000 copies for FR/LG despite of selling 1,800,000 copies of RS in the first THREE DAYS!

    There is gonna be a mad rush for these games come the 29th.

  • I think every one wants one as quick as thay can so thay are going to send it out with 500,000 copies then make as much as thay can and get them out as fast as thay can (see if thay made a million copies then it would be some time in Feb before thay get it out).

    Well generally when it comes to manufacturing products, despite how a product sells well, you really can't say that FR might sell 1.8mil in three days. They are just playing it safe I guess. I mean with CPU manufacturers such as Intel, they typically only produce 1,000 units for a product's release then they make more.

    Wow, wonder if a lot of them will be reserved? I bet a lot of people buy a bunch and sell them high on eBay. In fact? >_>;; j/k =p

  • I think it is kind of stupid, I mean put if off for a week or two and make more games, and every one is happy. I just hope thay dont do the same for the ones out side of Japan, I will get real sick if I dont get it the first day. Then again im going to pre-order mine.

  • as long as one is released and landed in the hands of a good yet "evil hearted" computer programmer i'll be happy then... "one game small game for one programmer, one mass production for the gaming world" XD *c*
