PLAY Sales Prediction Thread

[thinkingoutloud89]

I picked 700,000-800,000 but hope for more^^

[alt.total-loser]

I think 700,000 - 800,000.

I'm being a loser with this prediction, though, so...

[criminal]

I'm trying to be objective, so 400,000-500,000.

[fanmail]

500k - 600k ..... probably

[AyuGAME]

i think its about 400-500k
she can't get higher than that

[freedreamer]

i think 500-700 haha
i wanted to vote for 600-700 but not there

well..i think it would do as well as Ayu's Secret

why she can sell this much: coz she hasnt released for 2 years and people are hyped bout this

why she cant sell more: the material is so fresh and new...people need to get to used to it..esp. those who rarely listen to western music

[ayumisrael]

^Ummm well... I think it will go against her because as you see namie started with actual hip-pop syle songs with Style album which is her lowest selling album... and the album that was released before that was Break The Rules 3 years before (unless if you mention Love Enhanced which is a compilation)...
So I think it might be the same here =\...

[Alessia_Tateno]

Why? Queen of Hip Pop sold more than 450k...all her studio albums did except Style and Break the Rules

[ayumisrael]

^For me it's ayu's new single as the best single of the year (unless she'll have a better one), then it's kumi's BUT/aishou and then Baby Don't Cry, it's a really good single ^_^.

[Alessia_Tateno]

I want to hope it will sell well ^^ Actually around me a lot of people that didnt know her before is going to buy the album (I bought 4 copies, 1 for me, 1 for my sis and 2 for my friends), so I think it will sell *__*

Baby Don't Cry and BUT are the best singles of the year (Freaky too) but Glitter is so repetitive -.- too much like blue bird XD

Thank you! I completely agree with you about glitter. Baby Don't Cry is definitely the best single this year too, however, I would personally include Flavor of Life as second though. Freaky would probably be third.

[CREA.tive]

Around 500K-550K....it's still good.

[darkswordz]

150k-180k first week, 300k-400k in the long run with CD sales dropping, i feel that this would be the more reasonable range

[summersnow]

voted 400k-500k.

but really hope it'll pass 500k. =)

it's really an awesome masterpiece by namie!

[Halla]

it'll sell less than 500 000, at most around 400 000.

[IYFreak]

Now a 1 mil is wish full thinking unless it's a Best album so I put 500,000 - 600,000. But I guess we also have to see what the debuting sales are too

[Kouichi]

300.000 - 400.000 IMO

[mininamie]

PLAY comes out today in Japan I suppose we will get the daily sale figures soon, we can determine if PLAY's sales will be 500k-600k which is what most you all selected ^u^

[ayu_fan929]

We'll get thr 1st day sales Wednesday morning (in NY)

[mininamie]

PLAY sold 80,000 copies with in the first day! I think She could have a good chance of selling 200,000-300,000 cpoies in the first week!
