How am I passing judgement? Did I say the game was a flop? I said, and I'll quote myself:

Fusioncode said:

 But given the circumstances of Splatoon (2 days of tracking, stuck on an unpopular platform, etc.) I think the numbers are just OK. Not good. Not great. Not bad. Decent. 

"Decent"

Which is exactly what you said!

I like you Zorg but you've been misquoting me this entire conversation and it's a bit annoying as I have to keep repeating myself. 



I'm now talking about everybody in general, not just u, the people who are saying it's awful and the people who are saying it's great need to relax and wait for more information before jumping to conclusions.

Sunset Overdrive numbers were awfull? It was at 135k FW on US.

It was.

It will never reach 500k in US or even 1m WW.

The sales was terrible.

The new Nintendo game sales are ok... just that... the second month will say more but it is not great for example... it is just fine.



Another PS4 victory despite MS desperate deals
and it's in US...

I think this whole conversation can be summed up in one sentence: VGChartz get your feckin' charts in order!

If the charts were being run they way they were from 200x - Sept 2014 we'd have week 1 of June up, globally, and we'd have somewhat of an idea how things are going for Splatoon around the world. Second week drop for new IP is especially informative as interested fence sitters are likely to buy in the second wek after reviews are out and once there's been a fair bit of word of mouth and Youtubes about it. Reviewing in the low 80's would not mean huge numbers flocking to the game second week, but solid word of mouth and positive youtubes for this would encourage a lot of people to get the game in the second week.

The difference between Splatoon and Sunset Overdrive are:

1) Sunset Overdrive sold only in the US, and maybe UK (that is a small market if we talk about WW sales), outside this two market was a massive bomb, like in Germany that sold some like 5/6 k in the first week, Splatoon sell very good or at least decent in all market, even in UK, the worse Ninty market...

2) Sunset Overdive is release in October, a good month for the sales, Splatoon in May, totally difference situation.

3) Probabily the most important, Splatoon have legs. And you can say what you want, but is alredy confirmed by UK and Japan chartz.
Sunset Overdrive? Not so lucky...

I don't understand the comparison between the two.

Splatoon even not having great sales in US already sold good for a new IP... it even will outsell SO life to date in few weeks... it will sell over 1 million for sure.

SO flopped... Splatoon not.

Said that Splatoon sales in US are fine... just not great.

And now that i think so, the WU is probabily at 455k this NPD...

All that we have, is this:

Is confirmed that the PS4 won, and we know that XBO is at 139k... but we don't know who is XBO and WU in the graphs!

So, if blue is WU, and tecnically, nobody can say that is not :P we have:

 

PS4: 498k

WU: 455k

XBO: 139k

No one can say PS4 didn't sell 498k... great month for WiiU and PS4, sad month for X1 =]


Hahaha and Nintendo soooo humble not to have a PR announcing such an incredible surge in sales XD



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Just noticed the Xbox One version of Arkham Knight isn't in the top 100 for June yet, while PS4 version at 15. Maybe it really will boost PS4 hardware sales significantly.

Regie is a great guy. They don't want to mock MS.
