Tagged games:

Considering how COD did, I say it not only bombed on Wii U but on every platform.

GAF estimates ~24k units sold to PS4 version... three weeks before the launch.

had nintendoland/nsmbu or any anticipated game for any console's launch released a few weeks before the console, results would be similar.

Huh no, since they barely did that with the wii U being available, Nintendo land 27k mario 19k, thk you try again

I'm seriously not sure about your mental state but: those numbers would be identical if the games had released a little before the system. Because people don't buy a system at launch and decide what game to buy later. their minds are made up on games

I know you are blinded by your love of Nintendo but doing 25k 3 weeks before launch is not something you see often and outselling by more than 5 time the version with 180k userbase while you sit at 0 owners doen't happen often also. Yes I know I am using silly logic, I should be in damage control mode for Nintendo but I'll let that to you and by the way thx for worrying about my mental state it's heart warming knowing someone somewhere cares :D



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

does this include all the pre-orders of the last months which are "sold" now since it released in uk or only games sold in this week to people who didn't pre-order? that would make a huge difference and if it is with all pre.orders i think it was to expect.


I don't see any reason for why it shouldn't include pre-orders.

it would be if ps4 was releasing months from now.

Three weeks is close to a month for now... it is a good early sales.

If the preorder was shipped then it is included.

But for example... preorders with the PS4 won't will be shipped until the console get ready too... so standalone preorders only are shipped (I guess I'm not sure if the stores are shipping).

But sales are from gamers going to stores buy it too.

1. A guy goes to store to buy PS360 version of CoD
2. He see the CoD for PS4
3. He already have a PS4 preorder... so he buy the game too.

the only reason why it's not often is because games don't usually release a little earlier than the console.



Warning for Zero and Chapset, you've both made comments that are bordering on flaming. Dial it back please so I don't have to do any official moderations for what should be a pretty interesting discussion.

I 'm giving this COD a skip due to the short campaign. I think it is probably safe to say that most Wii U owners are not that much into multiplayer games.
