So a month or so back in the whole Nintendo vs. Youtuber let's play fiasco, the argument was made by a lot of people that let's players can boost sales of games. Recently, I went back to listen to a song for Xenoblade Chronicles and discovered that it had 300,000 views. In the comments there was mention of a let's play by Chuggaaconroy and it was implied that a lot of these views came from him recently killing the final boss of the game. I went to his let's play and saw that his first video had 1.3 million views, that is more than the original sold. His final video only had 170k views, as of now, but still that is a lot of people exposed to the game.
Do you think this will benefit Xenoblade X , Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS, New 3DS and the Wii U's sales? Why? Why not? If Chuggaaconroy made a let's play of Xenoblade X right after release, do you think that can negatively influence sales? (People who just want to know the story can watch him play.)
