Well at least until Destiny 2 releases.


Even then I think it will continue to sell.  Supposedly your characters will transfer over to the sequels.  So as of now, bungie is planning the games to build on each other...

Never knew that, that's pretty cool. Bungie really are planning for the future


Yeah, it sounds like they got the future all planned out already.  Not only will you be able to transfer your character to the sequels, but if you buy the sequel before buying the first game, you can use your destiny 2 character to play the destiny 1 content.  So you can transfer backwards as well!

There's a very good chance of this happening in my opinion. You buy XBox for FPS, but you don't buy a Wii U for fighters. Nintendo just happening to own one of the best fighting game franchises is just a perk of owning a Wii U.

I had to pick the maybe route.


Smash isn't a fighting game to 99% of the people who play it. It's a party game.

All I'm gonna say is it is played at major fighting game tournaments like Evo, and even hosted its own tournament at E3. I can see where 99% of people are coming from, as it breaks a lot of conventions of regular fighting games, but I still consider it one.

Destiny has a good chance to be the next Titanfall. Xbone version alone will not outsell smash wii u.

I'm only saying that from a sales perspective as the guy I responded to said that people don't buy the Wii U for fighting games. Even if that were true, smash isn't a fighting game to most of the people who buy it, so it won't have lower sales because of that catagorization.

True.

It'll probably be like Mario Kart 8. Where Watch Dogs PS4 outsold it at first, but It's obvious Mario Kart will pass it.

Smash is absolutely a fighting game for every people buying it.

And it will sell great. Less than MK8 Worldwide, but I can see it outselling a xbox one multiplat quite frankly.
