Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

I'm trying to compare it to like Halo MCC.. which sold what? 600K FW. Both are pretty big system sellers. Although that number may be well off. I want to say it won't do more than Halo FW numbers whatever that really is.

 


Compare reviews of Smash to reviews of Halo collection.... lol

This one has way more hype.

so your saying that a very anticipated game for the holidays can't even go pass 500k when it already had 400k preorders alone(I am accounting for the 5 days before it) and theres an average of 30 people at a store getting it 

ok?

you know everyone thought 1 m illion first week for mario kart was unlikely but it did it

so don't be surprised if this could possibly happen in its biggest market

I'm going with 490K FW NA, may prove me wrong. Plus Halo had a lot of negative reception for online...

it will do a lot more than a collection. 1m+

Would you have said the same about Mario Kart?

This is US, where XB1 has a big userbase advantage that buys Halo like crack.

750k here, 2m worldwide.



XBOX ONE/Wii U/3DS/PC

In the US? (Check the title) no it didn't. It didn't crack 1m until July/August.
