Would you have said the same about Mario Kart?

This is US, where XB1 has a big userbase advantage that buys Halo like crack.

smash bros sells like crack in the US too...

Not like Halo, and the smaller userbase to boot.


I would agree but i wouldn't be surprised if SSB FW > MCC. I know Halo FW normally hits as high as COD in the US. FPS tend to do that more,and aside from COD , Halo is probably the biggest in sales.

That said SSB has imo huge FW (hard to go buy as only 2 games to go by) and the hype is through the roof. I usually ask my gamestop manager wats going in preorders/sales (for not only mine, but the other 2 that are close as midnight launches are all athis store which = 3stores!) and funny thing was to our surprise, Aside from COD, it looks like the top games were ORAS (obviously), Halo MCC, GTA5, SSBU. Surprised FC4+AC:U+AC:R (more unity) didnt do as much as they expected it to, especially compared to Black Flag last year.

Halo is probably the biggest FW franchise in the US thats exclusive. Not fair to have all games pitted towards it. Its almost like if somebody said halo doesn't do well but only when you compare it to GTA/COD. Samehere, SSBU is selling like crack, tbh i wouldnt be surprise excluding COD, top sku for the month are all between Halo:MCC/OR/AS/SSBU.
