Guys, let's try to keep on topic here, ok?

OT: I'll go with Mario Kart 8 just because it's safer, but I can see it going either way.



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

Mario Kart 8 sold 7.5m!? Jesus Christ.

OT: Man, I don't fucking know.

"One of two good games". EXCUSE YOU!?!?!?!


That's really ignorant.


Anyway, Naughty Dog took a dump and got praised to death for it, Uncharted 4 can literally be a piece of crap and the press will hype/overrated it anyway, that'll help to move a couple million of copies on hype alone.

The game will definitely be bundled in the near or not so distant future (holidays), which will also help.

It'll go down in price unlike Nintendo's greedy asses' games, which will also help.

It most likely will be getting a re-release at a budget price, which will help.

I think both, ND and Uncharted are overrated but I'm voting for U4.

Mario Kart's numbers are impressive, specially since the game sells on brand recognition mostly.



Rol i sympathize with your MK concern. I can make some babies, if that'll help? Raise that birthrate

Anyway, U4 will crack 10M shipped (shipped retail + sold through digital). If NX runs Wii U games and doesn't have a new MK in its early life, those fresh legs could give it the edge. If nobody buys MK8 to play on NX, U4 wins



Uncharted is going over 10m sold imo.

Theres less than 13m Wii Us out there (wii u was confirmed overtracked here right?).
I dont think Mario Kart will ever get higher than 77% attachrate.

I think eventually Uncharted 4 wins the sales battle.



The hardware sales + The hype will be a big advantage on U4 Victory.



Pocky Lover Boy! 

I think I said in another thread that Uncharted is likely to become the best selling in it's series, because Naughty Dog's riding it's wave of (deserved) hype. I said 9m I think. I agree Mario Kart 8 should be able to get at least another million or so out there, to 8.5m.

I think Uncharted will come out on top.
