In your first post you said exclusive. Now you are talking about multiplats? iOy dios mio!
|
yeah? Because he brought it up. I said exclusive because it's a given Halo and Uncharted will outsell every WIiU multiplat. Perhaps I should have said Halo and Uncharted would outsell every WiiU game?
Edit - XD oh he said MULTIPLES, I read that as multiplats. You can't blame me, he's come out with some ... wild stuff.
Still, no there won't be multiple WiiU games to outsell Halo lol.
|
Haha no problem. I don't think anyone is crazy enough to predict a multiplat will beat those games.
Kart and Smash both have good chances of outselling Halo though.
|
I see Kart and Smash being more slow burners, and the userbases being on par by the end of 2014. I see Halo getting a lot of Halo fans to jump on board than MK and Smash fans.
360 userbase was around 6.3m in US when Halo 3 launched, and it did 3.3m in the US launch month.
That's US only. Massive.
|
The 360 had a much higher install base when Halo 3 launched. Looking at the charts the 360 was at 15.8 million global sales by the end of 2007. With Halo 5 coming only a year after launch instead of two, even with your optimistic predictions the XBONE will have a smaller install base (realistically it'll have a much smaller install base lol). Long term the game can still have great sales, but it's going to have a smaller opening.

How much smaller do you expect in the US? I don't expect it to be anywhere near 15.8m WW by the end of 2014. I used US as that's where Halo sells best and is a good metric for how well it can do.
What do you think Halo 5 can do on a 4mill install base in the US when Halo 3 did 3.3m on 6.3m? First month btw.
Even if XB1 is at 10m~ end of 2014, it did 7m on a 16m install base. That suggests 4m on a 10m~ userbase.
