Don't forget:
Fatal Frame and Bayonetta 2 come to Japan in September.
Hyrule Warriors comes to NA and Europe in September as well.
I think Disney Infinity comes to Wii U in September too -- that has more system selling power for Ninty than you might think!


Well, Fatal Frame and Bayonetta won't sell a lot. I'm not counting on Hyrule Warriors doing that too. X1 will have Destiny, CoD, BF, Fifa, Madden, Far Cry 4, AC: Unity, Halo MCC. That's a lot more selling power. Way more:

Fatal Frame franchise: 0.6M

Bayonetta: first did 2M

Disney: 3.5M all platforms combined. 1M on Wii. It's on X1 and PS4 too. Wii version and 360 version were basically the same.

Hyrule: did 0.09M in Japan. It's a very Japanese oriented game.

 

Just Destiny X1 can outsell all these guys combined. Except Disney Infinity, the other 3 games would be happy if they sold LT wordwide the same number that Destiny has of X1 preorders in the US.

The problem is that almost all of those games are also available on a more popular system (and older systems that people already own).  Given the choice, most people will just pick up the PS4.  I think it's mostly going to come down to Halo MCC's selling power.
