richardhutnik said:Another thing i saw about it is that, at its core, it is a 16bit fighting game, that was new at the time, and the gameplay is "timeless" or "dated" depending on one's view. I would say any sales of Super Smash Bros. successors come from an established fan based married to the Nintendo console. While a mash up brawl is a cool idea, I am just perplexed why people think that, off the Nintendo platforms, anything Smash Bros. like would end up doing gangbusters. And also why anyone think Sony would actually lead into it.
What is behind the hype actually? Would an Uncharted clone by Nintendo suddenly sell millions on a Nintendo platform? |
An uncharted clone would be very unlikely to sell much on nintendo either. An ico clone would do much better. Lets be honest, sony copied it because they saw the sales of smash bros and thought it was easy money. It is possible smash bros popularity also comes from it having characters from games like mario, zelda, pokemon etc. But I think it is more to do with the concept.
Sony changed things to make it different but the concept was done.
One more thing to complete my year = senran kagura localization =D
'Cos Smash Bros. sold millions of copies. Main reason.

Probably because it was based on a game that sells close to 10 million copies.

121 people said more than 2 million, which I don't see it happening at this rate, so yeah it wasn't only Gilgamesh.

A lot people were hyping this game up because of the unknown roster. After the roster was known and they found out Crash and Spyro weren't included, some people stopped the hype. I wasn't expecting a great deal of sales for the game, but I do expect it to hit a million, whether it be retail only or retail + digital, I'm sure it will reach it.
I know a lot of are waiting for this to hit plus, but I don't think it will be free on plus no time soon. There could be a plus discount or something. I expect a demo for people to try it out and maybe the game will sell a little more. I also see a bundle with Sly Cooper and PlayStation All Stars before or during the holiday.
maybe you should be careful that it's christmas and we don't have official numbers yet.

Those could be between 1 and 2 million units, and again at this rate it will be kinda hard to even reach the 1.5m mark, maybe by the end of the year.
