LBP is niche? You should look again at its sales on PS3. It is an exclusive, if you also consider SSB a Wii U exclusive.

GTA V will definitely not be the only game to sell PS4's in November, as along with LBP 3, Sony also have the exclusive marketing deal with Far Cry 4. It also has the superior version of Dragon Age: Inquisition. Anyways, the PS4 will sell well, and though it might be outsold by XB1 in USA, it will outsell it globally.


LBP? Its a niche title. It sells well but its appeal is not exactly what I'd call mainstream (also the title has decreased from LBP 1 to LBP 2). There's also a marketable difference in your relation to WiiU's SSB as that is, supposedly, offering distinct differences in content from the 3DS version, as far as I'm aware LBP3 PS3/PS4 is identical aside from resolution. I just don't see it as the type of title that pushes a console like say: Bloodborne, Halo.

See, I think FC4 is a far better bundle for them to push than a GTAV one, it would be a new game vs. new game, rather than trying to push a dated port (popular as it may be), as I question just how "paramount" a port will be to make a bundle seem appealing. Also its limit to EU, as of so far, as I said, feels like needless overkill. Perhaps we'll see a FC4 bundle in NA?

If LBP is a niche title but sells well, its not exactly niche, or atleast its one which Sony shouldn't miss out on. Anyways, as for SSB people more than likely will be satisfied with the 3DS version and wouldn't need a Wii U version, as Nintendo gamers don't care about graphics

Far Cry 4 will definitely be a better bundle than GTA V, but I think it will also be more expensive for Sony to get bundle deals for the game as it is a new game. LBP 3 bundle in USA would be much better. An Infamous: Second Son bundle will also be really good.
