I want to know what world you live in where a title that sells only 1/6th of its predecessor is "not a big drop at all," haha.

So what if the installbase was smaller? It's still a failure. Especially because it didn't move any Wii U consoles.

And I don't think Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze has even HIT one million yet. Chartz says it has, but I think Chartz is over-estimating here.


Not denying the massive drop between the 2 games, but in your opinion is MK8 a failure? It went from 36mil+ to 5.1mil (i know its going to be higher) and its down roughly 1/6th when its all done.

Mypoint being DKTF failed to move consoles, and failed to get close to the SW sales of Returns (and probably more expensive), but does automatically deem it a failur?

Pokemon was once a 20mil+ franchise (well gen 1/gen 2 sold 32mil/23mil) and its now at least a 10mil franchise, thats not considered a failure :)
