Smash will make wallets happier, while Destiny will make them die. So many unessecary DLC.

What does that even mean? Can you explain, please? 

Are you saying that Smash will make wallets happier because no one will buy it while people who bought Destiny will end upgetting DLC's and would thus spend even more money on the game? In other words, that Destiny will destroy Smash in profit? Or am I reading this wrong?


I think he meant SSB is worth the money and destiny isnt well spent (this judging by the Dlc comment)

Yeah, I just found the analogy a bit weird. I mean, a wallet would be happy if there were no games for your console or games that are so bad that you won't spend money on them. If you spend any money, how can the wallet be happy?

Destiny on ps4 > smash wii U + 3ds + destiny on ps3 and xbox 360



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.

destiny, Wii U wont have the install base necessary to outsell it.

true, also the fact that SSB is indeed going to be alot more money spent overall. Without DLC...

~Amiibos

~Gen 6 Controller (GCN)

~GCN controller Adapter

That alone will make more wallets cry, especially the amiibos, this is why i posted that SSB might actually make more money than Destiny overall in the years to come. Especially if you add the fact SSB wont go down in price for at least 4 years.

Anywayz It would be amazing if SSB>Destiny in Sales for numerous reasons. But it wont be the case

Hopefully Destiny. But i don't need to hope for it actually

you cant use 3ds sales to back up Wii U ones. Makes no sense. 3ds is in a different league sales wise than Wii U. the Wii U version isnt going to do anyhwere near the sales of 3ds at least opening

Yeah. Not really a competition. This holiday should give Destiny a nice boost out of reach.

edit: Looks at every post. Looks at poll. Yeah, a lot of Nintendo lurkers on here.


Lol exactly, noone voting is giving an actual reason for why Smash will win. And the OP gives a flawed reason.

I am quite surprised over the poll results too!! I'm glad Nintendo fans have blind faith, but Destiny selling more is closer to reality. IMO I think Sony fans are not voting because they are laughing out loud at this question and just going to the next thread.

As for my OP being Flawed, to an extent yes (as we don't know how many digital copies Destiny sold), but just remember that Smash has a market that Destiny doesn't have: JAPAN. It continues to sell countless copies there, and that might be the wild card Smash needs to edge out Destiny. Also, just remember that Destiny is a fairly new IP, we do not know if it will have the Legs to compete against Smash in the longrun. The release of CoD:AW WILL hurt Destiny, whether it's fans like it or not.

I think Destiny will outsell Smash, but only because it's available for more Consoles. I strongly believe Smash will edge out it's 8th generation competition with 3ds and Wii U.
