If it's declining in popularity, that would be very bad. Why would Capcom be happy with their biggest series starting to buckle?

Because the series isn't at the height of its popularity, I don't expect it to exceed MH4, but to say 30% less seems to high... That would be worst case scenario.

I didnt actually say its declining in popularity though, i just said Third version (or G in this case) dont necessarily have to be as big as your expectations. 30% less is nothing bad at all. 30% less is 2.8mil-2.9mil shipped. I dont see how thats a decline, its not a new installment.

Dont get me wrong, i think fw sales and lifetime will be good, but man, i dont think a 2.8mil figure for a game is bad at all, especially when pokemon third installments in japan do 2mil-3mil coming off of games that did 5.5mil-7mil (10mil for red/blue).

Well, it is declining in popularity. We do know that (at least the playerbase is fragmented due to the platform move). This isn't the third version. It's the successor to Monster Hunter 4. It should be considered 2nd, whereas MH3U on 3DS was a similar G version to the original Tri on Wii.


then maybe im misunderstanding the G. I guess its not like other games.

Tomorrows update is when we would see whatever effect the Smash Bros. U release date announcement has on pre-orders correct?


Nope, still not up yet.


That's why I said "tomorrow" :P

Pre-orders for Smash Bros for Wii U open between today and tomorrow.

Good to know! Can't wait to see the numbers.



Bets:

1. If the Wii U sells closer to 10 million LTD by 1/3/2015 I win. If it sells closer to 9.5 million LTD by 1/3/2015 OfficerRaichu15 wins (winner gets 2 weeks of avatar control)--Lost.

Godamm, MH. 3k points seems possible.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
