| JNK said: it would definitve sell more without the problems. There were many people today to just "hm lets see" and then they got nothing and they lost interest again. I dont say it will sell bad, but it would definitve do better without the problems. So i also played the 2nd round (good they did it) but the damage was already done. One example: First Hour first minutes SPlatoon was on twitch front page (30k viewer). Second Hour Splatoon wasnt on twitch front pake anymore (7k viewer).
I think you can expect a similar amount of players. Many people doesnt even got informed when it works. Dont forget, the normal gamer isnt like we. he is not that much a nerd and try/wait/google/discuss on forum etc about the problems. He just see dont work = bad.
Dont get me wrong, i love the game. But this really shouldnt happen. |
The game hasn't come out yet. We don't know if the final product has these issues, therefore it won't impact sales.
Obviously views went down because the first hour was nothing and people weren't gonna stick around to watch that, and they probably didn't know the second hour existed.
The average gamer doesn't know about the Wii U in the first place, so that isn't an issue.
Like I said, it's a test. It was expected that something like this would happen when they're literally testing the server's ability to handle stress. Besides, they gave us an extra hour. It's a non-issue.
