...well this thread is silly. Just because we are making comparisons, doesn't me we are asserting they are the same. We compare things infinitely less related than HW/DW every day on this site, so why is this becoming such a big point of contention?
HW is a Warriors game
HW was helped in the West by the LoZ franchise
As long as we keep both of those things in mind, we should be allowed to make comparisons. I don't think anyone is saying that HW is selling well solely because it is on the Wii U and the software on the Wii U sells like hotcakes, so why does it seem people are trying to set up counter arguments for that point?
ex. "It is thanks to Zelda, if it were just a Dynasty Warriors game on Wii U, it wouldn't be doing those numbers"
