US - 85k

EU - 50k

Edit: Well so much for the people here expecting for it to go over 700k lifetime.


Why? Nintendo gameshave the best legs in gaming (in terms of year spans)

Doesn't mean the market won't ridicule wind waker HD though. 





pre orders for US is 80k and first week sales are generally double or more than the preorders. we know it did good on UK, at least. I'd say a minimum of 250k combined, probably over 300k.

This time wind waker HD will not do wonders since it's on a bad system and by bad I mean selling worse than gamecube bad. It's almost guranteed that the market will reject it.

No way. Digital Sales might be doing okay for now but not even counting those retail should do good. Not like 3-5mil Success cuz this is a remake. But it'll leg out pass a million lifetime. Your prediction is 135k retail right? add 30k to it and thats around 170k World Wide (counting 5k for the rest of the world).You dont think a NINTENDO FIRST PARTY GAME will leg out pass 700k starting off with 170k First 2 days? REALLY O.o

hint: the absence of releases was the cause of bad sales.



I think this will fare pretty well. When i was looking for the game, two of my Gamestops were sold out and it wasnt on display at Best Buy. Got it at Toys R Us and another kid was buying the same game. I think 120k for NA is a good estimate, Europe you never know.



USA = 45k
EU = 17k



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

Then why hasn't pikmin 3 already passed the 700k mark yet since it's a new game ? What makes you think that an HD remaster of one of the more rejected zelda game will do wonders for a system like the wii u. 

Edit: BTW I'm being extremely generous with my prediction here seeing as how I think it might not even get half those numbers.
