To be fair, you're comparing games that have been out for years to a game that came out a few months ago (according to VGC numbers).

It will end up being one of the poorest selling Kirby titles, but that's unsurprising given Kirby Canvas Curse on the DS didn't sell too well either. 500k+ should be doable.

Edit: As someone who's played the game, it is quite good but the controls are very unique and take some time to get used to. It's also a game that relies on the gamepad, so that can turn some people off. The aesthetics are amazing though.

Should've been a "didn't play" option in the poll. As no one did.

Number 23 out of all the tracked Kirby games on Vgchartz.

190 thousand in total sales so far, with the next closest game at 220 thousand.

 

The highest in the Franchise is over 5 million!

 

Which is really strange after seeing mostly positive comment on the game wall,  besides one user comparing it to a mobile game and gettingbridbof it after about an hour of play.

IMO it should have been a mobile game.

Honestly, it would be painful to play on a phone.

It's sad, I really liked the game, the levels were great, the artstyle is fantastic and the soundtrack is beautiful, the best in the franchise (with the exception of the final boss theme that goes to Return to Dreamland)

It was more of a budget game like Captain Toad so I didn't expect it to sell that well. Also with VGCs numbers, it's pretty outdated..

it's still in the top 50 global best sellers on the newest chart so we would have to wait for quite a while. We'll never know if it's the worst selling because some of those have only japan sales and some we have no sales at all. I know for example though that kirby's block ball is pretty common in the US. Kirby's Dream Land 3 i remember being released super late in the SNES life and it is very rare outside of Japan. It's selling for 85$ on amazon US.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

I liked it a lot. Rated it an 8/10 at the time. Terrible multiplayer though, and short and niche gameplay its still hard to recomend for everyone but i took a chance on it and am pleased i did.



Kinda hard to enjoy a game where you have to look at the gamepad constantly instead of the TV lol



the soundtrack is awesome! the art style is awesome! the gameplay is okay. it is worth a purchase
