Soundwave said: Honestly the term "system seller" should be reserved for a small handful of IP. Splatoon is not at that level, not unless it legs its way to 1.5 million LTD in Japan or something. It's a great game though and I'm glad to see it's selling fairly well in Japan. Splatoon 2 is pretty much assured on NX I would guess. |
I actually agree with you on this one. While Splatoon will no doubt boost system sales, established IP are really the reason people buy a console. For instance, many people would buy an Xbox One knowing Halo will eventually be released. Therefore, Halo is a system seller. Maybe we should distinguish between a system seller and a system booster or something like that? I don't know...
I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.
