So, 490,000 Smash Bros confirmed... what do you think about Wii U boost?

I don't know, maybe 70k?



KLXVER on 25 November 2014

87K



Welfare on 25 November 2014

80k to 90k



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Week 1 - 27k
Week 2 - 37k
Week 3 - 80k
Week 4 - 220k (200% rise which is similar to last year, won't be as big tho as Smash week will have artificially risen the baseline)

364k total for the month. It's less than my original prediction. I dunno, I don't see Smash selling 490k (of which a lot will have already have had the console) giving a big boost.

...Only 88% boost the BlackFriday week?

I agree with the first's 3 week, but the BlackFriday will be huge for all console.

I updated, didn't realise we had WiiU at 150k last year on BF (though that may be a little over given it only did 220k for the entire month).

I love the 7 people that have voted +120K.
85,000 is my bet.

Those numbers don't seem unreasonable. I'm betting 350+ of the 490k are already Wii U owners. Some who were holding out on the console might have jumped in last week, but I'd wager those interested parties who've managed to hold off since Mario Kart will be able to make it one more week for those crazy black Friday deals. 

I'm going to be optimistic and say: 90k w3, 250k wk4. I'd love for it to be more, but (like I said) I'm already being optimistic.
