Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Donkey Kong Country Returns sales thread

Well now that Donkey kong Country returns has suddenly appeared in the pre-order charts of America's  thought I should ask everyone how much do they think it will sell First week Worldwide(launch aligned),  after 15 weeks and LT.  First donkey kong country did 9M LT 2nd did less and3rd did even lesser, maybe DKCR will do in between them?

This table will hold out predictions which will one day have the average that will take ages to calculate.  Now the predictions are starting to build! Average is now calculated and we are up to date.

Is that life time? 3 predictions for the 3 columns would be helpful.

Launch alignment is assumed for this:

First week: 1.2 million

15 weeks: 6 million (I expect lots of sales over the holiday period)

Lifetime: 10 million, yes I think this will exceed the original DKC.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

LTD:7-8 million
