It did 2.1m. US had a delayed launch. (I just looked at the numbers more closely too and came back to change what I said)
OT - After looking at the numbers again I change my "easily" to "very doubtful." However, people are seriously low balling it. If it doesn't sell at least 650k week one it would be an utter flop expectationwise in my opinion. I don't know if people are intentionally low balling it so when it does pull out good numbers people can pull the "better than expectations card" but seriously, this is MK here. It will have a decent attach rate.
About the poll.... why the hell did you pic those distributions in the options? It goes by 150k first two options then 250k second two options. 250k is huge for numbers we are talking about. I think it should do at least 650k but I would still be right if I chose the option it lands it even if it only sells 500k. But thats 30% difference
