Capcom Aiming To Sell 1.2 Million Copies Of Dead Rising 3

Capcom expects Dead Rising 3, the zombie-centric action coming exclusively to Xbox One, to sell 1.2 million copies. 

In addition, the publisher revealed that Lost Planet 3 was outsold by Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen. Spark Unlimited's snowbound third-person shooter managed to sell only 300,000 copies, while the fantasy action-RPG moved more than double that with 650,000 units sold worldwide. Just yesterday, Capcom revealed that Resident Evil 5 is the publisher's best-selling game.

Do you think Capcom's expectations for Dead Rising 3 are too lofty? Are they right on target? Considering it is one of the few really interesting exclusives that will be available at launch, you'd think the attach rate would be rather high, no? Then again the install base will be quite small, so there's that to take into account as well.
