What reason do you have to believe that Xenoblade will provide a lasting boost? It's a RPG, so it'll have very little legs.

You can't tell how big or small xenoblade's legs will be. But it is a highly anticipated title and has a bundle, meaning the current wii u sales are suffering because of it. Besides, splatoon (and yoshi, I think) will release soon after it, so there won't be a drought for at least some months = much bigger baseline than binary is expecting. Also, hoping for a 16k baseline for ps4 may be too much.

Highly anticipated in what regard?  The original Xenoblade sold poorly on a platform that was 2x+ higher upon its release.   Seece mentioned on your wall that you overvalued the Wii U potential this pass holiday, and you never gave no answer for it, I assum it'll be the same once we see that Xenoblade X and the other Wii U titles will have little to no effect on the Wii U sales and its future baseline.


Xenoblade didn't sell poorly, It wasnt huge in sales but 150k+ isnt poor sales. (i think someone pointed out 180k-ish Sales lifetime.
