It's D-Day for Square Enix and Sony
in Japan as the PS3 exclusive version of Final Fantasy XIII arrives on
store shelves in its motherland. If you want to get a copy before the
Western release, you can import it while stocks last.

Both Square Enix and Sony have been banking on Final Fantasy XIII to
give both their fortunes a boost in Japan. Sony's PS3 has proved
popular there, but overall console gaming in Japan lags behind the
handheld behemoth that is the DS and to a lesser extent PSP - and Sony
and Square Enix will be hoping today's launch can prove big-budget
console games still have it.

For Sony this is also a landmark day as after seeing RPG franchises
such as Star Ocean and Tales as well as new properties including Blue
Dragon, The Last Remnant and Lost Odyssey release either exclusively or
first on the Xbox 360, they at last have an earth-shatteringly large
RPG to call their own - in Japan at least.

Even Microsoft will likely be watching closely, gauging the success of
Final Fantasy XIII to see what just how important the game will be in
their 2010 line-up.

Final Fantasy XIII hasn't had what
one would call an easy birth - announced at E3 2006, the game had
actually been in production since the completion of Final Fantasy X-2,
and an entire PS2 version of the game was actually scrapped when the
title moved to PS3.

Square Enix spent much time developing Crystal Tools, the FF13 engine,
and the game was delayed time and time again - and eventually announced
for Xbox 360.

Square Enix will undoubtedly be pleased to finally have this game in
the hands of the public after such a long development time - and
hopefully the game should be incredibly polished as a result.

1 million copies of the game have been shipped to Japan for launch,
with a further 300,000 arriving in the following week. This is 700,000
less then Final Fantasy XII, but with the PS3 having a smaller install
base than the PS2, this is to be expected.

Perhaps Square should've printed more, though, as indications are
already beginning to point to a shortage over in Japan with Amazon
Japan no longer taking preorders.

Final Fantasy XIII will be out in the West in March 2010, but if you can't wait for that Play Asia still have some import copies of the game left, despite reporting that import preorders were the best this generation.

Now Final Fantasy XIII is out in Japan, do you feel it will affect the
fortunes of Sony's PS3 or console games in general in Japan? How well
do you think it'll sell?
