XBC 3D > XBX > XBC

I just find it hard to believe that the XBC 3D and XBX could sell less than XBC, which sold awfully and, I think, was limited to just Gamestop.



XBX > XBC 3D > XC

I don't really have any logical reasoning for this. I just think XBX will be the most hyped out of the three and it'll have the largest following, even though it'll be on the platform with the lowest user base. I think XBC 3D will sell more than the original, since it's the first exclusive for the N3DS and that'll encourage more people to check it out, so it could end up having a pretty healthy attach rate. XC just didn't sell that great to begin with, mainly due to it launching in the US after the Wii had died and only as a Gamestop exclusive.

XB3D will sell best because it is on 3DS (or New if you want to whine about my wording), and X will outsell the original because the original came along as the gen was over, was pirated excessively due to not being in Murica, and wasn't advertised properly, all wrongs X has the ability to right.

XBC3D > XBCX > XBC



bet: lost

Easily XBC > XCX > XBC 3D ...

XBC 3D has an extreme disadvantage when it comes to sales potential. The platform will only likely remain strong in Japan and they didn't care much on it for when it came to the WII ...

XCX should do better than XBC 3D but not better than XBC since the install base in other regions such as Europe and Japan will likely prevent that from happening ...

Did people here forget that XBC 3D is EXCLUSIVE to the New Nintendo 3DS ?



XBX > XBC 3D > XC

If not, XBC 3D > XBX > XBC.

There will probably be slightly more Wii U owners than New 3DS owners by the time XBX comes out, and XBX seems to be more hyped compared to XBC 3D.

One thing's for sure, both XBX and XBC 3D will outsell the original XBC, XBX especially..



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Not many JRPG's are as good as XCX as I've been told. Also the Wii sold over 100 million consoles . . . But I do understand one of the reason's for the game's poor sales was because its supply was crap and it was exclusive to Gamestop.

Well that is for NoA (wat hurt sales), but thats still doesn't mean it had awful sales. Being one of the best jrpg =/= suppose to have best sales (look at Persona+Fire Emblem). User base also doesn't necessarily matteras Jrpg is a niche genre only having Pokemon+FF+KH with Competitive sales figures againsnt other big games.

Actually isnt Tales of Franchise the 4th or 5th biggest JRPG franchise? (has to be in the top 10 at least). Thats a well established franchise and that barely hits 600k-700k per entry.

Overall Xenoblade Chronicles did extremely well if anything, especially in NoA where most of its sales came from and a game that was one of the most expensive games to get. (used copies going for $100-$200 with people actually buying it!)
