According to VGC dk tf is now finally at 1 million sales physical. I think this is a great success giving the size of the install base, mixed reviews(even though its a great game) however it is one of nintendos more well know IP'S. What you guys think success or flop?

It was released 21st feb so took 11 months

It did it in less than a year, so that's good!

Congrats to Retro!

It's still disappointing that it took a year for one of Nintendo's biggest franchises to sell past one million. Just goes to show games that don't feature Mario or Zelda have a tough time selling on the Wii U no matter how high the quality is



It's about damn time! Solid sales overall, could hit 2m when the gen is over.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

It deserves even more. It's such a blast to play, picked it up last week and can't stop playing it since.

"Mixed reviews"? Eh? It's 83 in metacritic, that's mixed too now? Oh my



Metroid would have sold faster. Just sayin.

No 83 is very good i just remember gamespot giving it a 6 amongst overs. If 50 reviewz gave 10 and 50 gave 6 that would be 8 right so mixed reviews



I actually wasn't sure if it would ever pass 1m in physical sales back when it was new. Good to see I was wrong. Absolutely deserves double the sales too.



Yep.

The only negative review I remember was the gamespot one and that was a joke.

This game deserves a lot more, but the last game the Wii U needed was another platformer.
