I should have made one of these obvious threads for each Vita game that comes out. Would get a lot of responses as well. They would all go something like this..... "WHat!!!! Are you not amazed that another game is going to flop? I cannot believe that this game did not sell 5 million copies!", " The Vita is most certainly doomed when a little known game that is also a niche title, that is also on a system that is struggling does mediocre."

But sadly, I missed my chance, now that the Price cut is here everything is saved. Maybe the Wii U should get a 100 dollar price cut? Or was the Vita price cut less? Then the Wii U could be savedoomedez!!! ^_^

Seriously though, 300 thousand lifetime and this game will do fine. They should not have expected anything else.
Still, Wii U is starting to get a decent line up of games. Just waiting for about 4-5 big Nintendo games for it to finally take off like the 3DS did. But it will be another 6 months to a year before it gets any lasting momentum I think.

It wasn't that obvious though, at least not to many Nintendo fans. 

"I hope this game gets people interested. I just worry that it will be another Pikmin. Not really too big of a system seller, just a hold over for more games."

Lifetime sales: "1. Sonic Lost World - 1.5m

2. Yarn Yoshi - 1.4m
3. X - 1.1m
4. The Wonderful 101 - 0.7m
5. Bayonetta 2 - 0.6m
6. Rayman Legends - 0.08m"

"1. Yoshi's Epic Yarn (1.3m)


2. Sonic Lost World (1.2m)


3. X (monlolith's title) (1.1m)


4. Bayonetta 2 (900k)


5. Wonderful 101 (800k)


6. Rayman Legends (300k)"

Yep, this. Though all should be above 1mil, or close to it, aside from Rayman. "

To be fair, my prediction it would flop doesn't contradict my 800k lifetime prediction. (Which was made before the 30k shipment tipoff, btw)

Platinum's Madworld opened at 4k in Japan but went on to do 720k globally lifetime.


and it took it dropping to $2 bucks for that to happen. Is Ninty willing ot drop the price that much? I doubt it.
