It will sell fine. If you notice the rumors also state Nintendo's next console, like the 3DS, launched in pre-summer vs the holidays. The reason for this is so they could launch with their own big IPs and have something in plentiful capacity come holidays. NSMBWii launched outside of the holidays and it sold record levels that following holiday. Same would happen with any big Nintendo IP. Basically, the game that came out earlier will still be big, just not overshadowing a 3rd party title as normal. |
