No bet, i'll just bring this thread up, even if im wrong (i got 3 ongoing bets, cant accept anymore!).

As for 3DS, i dont think it'll cannibalize wiiu sales. How can it be proved? Wait and see sales of the WiiU version, if it sells over 4-5mil copies, then 3ds didn't cannibalize sales. 3DS will outsell wiiu smash based on 2 reasons.

1, Higher Userbase (major role in it)

2. With 3DS version, everybody needs their own copy vs wiiu with extra controllers. This game is huge on local multiplyer. Myself im buying 3 copies of Smash 3ds vs 1 copy of smash U :)

Lets hope it reaches those numbers then, shall we?


NP :) SSB hit 5mil >_<


It would be a miracle if the Wii U outsells the GC in five years time. Doesnt look like it so I cant see Smashes sales going over 3-3.5 M if it launches anywhere near this time period.

Why wouldn't it top 3.5 mil?

Super Smash Bros. Brawl sold roughly 12 million units so why would Super Smash Bros. 4 sell one fourth of the sales? (Not to mention most hardcore fans of the series who got the chance to experiance the game early on said the gameplay was the best for the series). Also don't give me that bullshit that the install base of the wii at the time was bigger than the current install base of the wii u;

1. most of the install base were passive casuals who could give two flying fucks about a fighter.

2. most of the people who are going to buy SSB for Wii u are waiting for the game to release.

Thankyou everyone *leaves stage pissed off and knocks over waiter holding drinks*.
