This game is gonna be a system seller for the PS3, and it probably one of the few exclusive titles left on the PS3 that can be considered such, along with Gran Turismo and likely a couple others that I can't think of ATM.
This stock is definitely launching undervalued but on top of that you know that this is going to be a highly recognizable stock that many people will buy simply because they know its a good game to buy stock in, like Halo 3 and World of Warcraft Burning Crusade were.
Because this is on the Playstation 3 it might not reach the same value but its definitely going to reach at least 600 DKP, probably even 750.
As far as how many titles the game will actually sell, I think there are a number of factors that will hamper sales, among them you already mentioned the FFXIII Versus game that is also launching. This title will compete with that for sales and not everyone will pick up both, though I do think this is going to be the more popular of the two.
On top of that as long as they only release this on the PS3 sales will be lower because the PS3 is so expensive and not everyone is going to put out 600 bucks to buy the system, which may possibly be why Square is looking at making this multiplatform, I know its been mentioned in the rumor mill that it may go to the Wii, and we have definitely seen Square warm up to Nintendo recently so I find this likely.
The game looks beautiful and will hopefully do something to show off the incredible power of the PS3.
Overall I think the game will get between 5-7 million sales over its lifetime, but we probably won't see that many sales if Square launches the next FF too soon after this, I am going off the assumption there will have 2-3 years before the next one.
