Will Splatoon be able to outsell any major exclusives from Sony or Microsoft this year?

Nintendo's high profile releases are renowned for their legs, especially multiplayer focussed ones like Mario Kart and Smash. Splatoon will very likely continue this trend; I would not be at all surprised if it too sold less than 20% of it's lifetime sales week one.

Are you seriously lumping Splatoon with Smash and Mario Kart?lol

I think it'll be more in line with stuff like Wonderful 101, or at best Pikmin.

In terms of raw numbers? Of course not.

I am suggesting that Splatoon will have the classic Nintendo legs that so many of their franchises have, though.

And you do realize Wonderful 101 is at 330k sold after nearly two years, right? If you want to make a bet that Splatoon will sell around that amount, I'll take it anyday. A month of sig and avatar control?
