they don't get the full amount
approx 20% goes to sony, 20% goes to retailer
and I'd imagine this game could easily cost them more than that amount

the average triple A game budget is 23million

Gran Turismo 5 costing almost $60 million and Modern Warfare 2's budget of almost $50 million.

Yeah but I'm sure more than 150k would buy it if it actually came out

I personally don't think it would sell too much more.

I played the demo and didn't like it. Two scary parts and two terrible puzzles. After the demo I wasn't sold.

what it deserves and what it manages to achieve are 2 very different things
and for many games that number can end up being unobtainable during it's entire existance

to add onto this after a little searching and SH games sales appear to be very low for what it would've probably cost
if the downward trend for the series I'm looking at is correct for an estimate for what this game could've achieved then it would've been around as many sales as there are signatures for NA
Japan sales would possibly be only around 1/5th of that based on the trend i see there and in japan that would likely be considered low
