Splatoon's case is the most impressive, since its different than the regular shooter, was released on a console with smaller install base, and wasn't multiplatform.

Gears was sick too.


Titanfall. Much more impressive releasing on an install base of 4 million. The multiplatform point doesn't matter since this thread is only counting releases on a single platform

That makesit more impressive since its sales were split across different SKU's.

I expect the next Splatoon game to sell nearly or even equal to Gears of War games level...

Good luck.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

good luck my ass, what is the usually Gears Sales, 6 million? And how much will sell Gears 4, 5 million?

Well, Splatoon 1 will already sell more than 3 million lifetime, no contest.

2 million is seriusly too low at This point.

Splatoon 2 will easy sell 4 to 6 million lifeime, so, Gears level. Or, nearly Gears level.

I agree. There's more places to get the game rather than all the sales being lumped into one system

So, people in this thread talk about GTA V, TLOU, BloodBorne... oh god... do you know what the hell is a SHOOTER!?

The truth finally shows up: The PS4 is as much of a shooterbox as the Xbox One.

About GTA, shooter or not, the first GTA didn't sell a million million on any platform.

I think you have the wrong link there, old chum.  Besides, the first two gta games aren't really shooters in the same way as 3 and beyond.

There really ain't many but add Overwatch to the list when it comes out later this year.
