If price is always good Id expect it to sell about 600k LTD.

We both know what I meant. This is not a game the mainstream consumer will spend almost retail price on.

I don't think it's gonna fare as well you think it will ... 

If COMG Pre-Order's are any indicator, it could possibly be a dud ... 

Even though it's just one retailer, I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith on it's japanese appeal ...

It will pass 500k.

Kirby stopped been about a selling reason for Nintendo platforms a long time ago so it became a game that DEPENDS on the size of the userbase ... 

What you've shown only further's my assertion in the end. 

this game will do as well as captain toad, which by the way is doing incredibly well (340k + 10k media crate numbers = 350k). probably already at 500k+ with digital + euro launch. i see rainbow curse doing the same.

i see both games eventually doing 750k-1m within the year, so around canvas curse numbers to a third more. for small games like this to break even, i imagine 400k would suffice. so a sizable profit for nintendo in both cases.

Wanna bet that Rainbow Curse won't top 500k lifetime?

i love these people who make ridiculous claims like kirby will not sell 500k. only two times has a kirby title ever sold less than 500k. and both of those titles (kirby block ball and kirby star stacker) were spin-offs. i mean, even kirby's dream course (kirby golf basically) sold 600k.. tilt n' tumble sold 1.3m... kirby, in any flavor, is a reliable mid-list goldmine for nintendo.

Kirby 64 and Kirby Air Ride both sold over a million without either of their respective consoles having a sizeable userbase. Kirby games typically sell within the same range each time.

it will sell slowly over time like all nintendo titles and initially wont have great numbers but down the line they'll be respectable

thats my take
