I was agreeing to you up to the conclusion, would just add that we can't measure how much it would add to WiiU.

But to expect a 1M sells that bring a 500k boost to WiiU is somewhat crazy (because that would be more than a small boost), even TitanFall/Infamous have hardly brought 500k new console sells to their side while one being GOTG and Infamous being the best 1st party exclusive for PS4 so far.

And I won't name no one or would go search for them... but we know that there are some people that say it will be a blockbuster, now if they are pretending, overhyping or believe this I can't be sure.

I wasn't asserting that it would sell 1 million with 500,000 being new Wii U purchasers. I was using those numbers to demonstrate that a game need not be a blockbuster to be a system seller. Hence the "if". Also note that Bayonetta is a lot less like the rest of the Wii U's current lineup than Titanfall or Infamous are to their respective systems. This is especially true of Titanfall, which is most likely to appeal to FPS fans who would already have bought an Xbox One.

I do think it'll reach 1 million. I'd expect the number of people buying the system for the game to be closer to 200,000 than 500,000. But I do expect it to sell some systems.

Why use hypotetical numbers that you don't think will be achievable. Said it will sell 500k LT and push 10-50k system then I wouldn't think it was too optimistic.
