How many people live in Japan?

Well, that plus all the pissed off people who don't want to wait and import it. That's my answer.

I'd say 1.5mil first day

I'd say it will sell about as much as FFXII, FFIX or any other Final Fantasy game in the past. . .

Can't believe no one has said over 9000!!

But I predict at least 1 mil day one and by weeks end 2.5 or so. 4 mil by the end of the month.
