That's a terrible number for Final Fantasy, I knew I was being a bit generous in the preview but it looked like 620,000 - 720,000. Final Fantasy X-2 did like 1.4m week one (down from 2m for FFX)

Sony messed up with the Vita line-up, 3DS has better games overall. I'm a PS fanboy but I'll probably wait a while to get PSVita, especially since it doesn't allow multiple accounts.

Don't expect too much from 2nd week, it could be even more disappointing.
