First we have an article-style piece from Videogamer with producer Hideaki Itsuno, who, among other things, talks about sales expectations (and goes a tad overboard with them):
"I don't know if other Japanese developers are trying to become more global, but I know we definitely are," says Itsuno. "It's difficult, because we really want this game to sell 10 million units worldwide. We want to sell a lot, and that's just something that we think we can do. We're not positive. Of course it's a risk, but that's what we want - a challenge.
"But in Japan, we can absolutely sell a million units. We know that's attainable, it's absolutely do-able. We have a kind of assurance that that will happen, but for worldwide that's not so much the case, and I think that's why a lot of Japanese developers are hesitant about going global. It's because they don't have that assurance that it'll be successful."
Then we move on to Official Xbox Magazine that offers a footage-laden video preview of the title.
