Is Hyrule Warriors Doomed?

[Metrium]

wow, ppl seriously needs to look at things under a other contexte.

This game is not supposed to be a system seller. I doubt anyone at Nintendo is thinking otherwise. Just because it's not aimed at being a system seller does'nt means that it should'nt be made.

This game has been confirmed to not being the next real Zelda game. And if even it was'nt confirmed, you would need to be seriously stupid to think that it is the real next Zelda game. Did anyone think that Link's Crossbow training was the next Zelda game instead of Skyward Sword? But I don't even understand why I'm even talking about this since Iwata said it himself that it was'nt the next Zelda game.

The game is not aimed at selling Zelda numbers of units. It is aimed simply at being a fun spinoff for both fans of Dynasty Warriors games and for some Zelda fans who are interested into trying a new style of game they never tried before.

This game has not the production value of a Zelda game. It will probably sell between 300k and 500k units, Nintendo are probably expecting these numbers and the game will be profitable with these numbers. Ppl need to look at games in a way that will make them understand that some things are just meant to be enjoyed by some and stop trying to go deeper than that with the speculation of wether they are doomed or not. Is Scibblenauts doomed when they sell 200k units? no because the production value of this game is low, it's profitable and is meant as being enjoyed by some, not sell million of units and becoming a worldwide phenomenom.

Conclusion, Hyrule Wariors is only a enjoyable spinoff. Not aimed at becoming a GoTY masterpiece. Just a fun game with the goal of introducing DW fans to Zelda, and some Zelda fans to DW. And trying to analyse it deeper than that would be pointless and shallow.
