| uran10 said: I'm expecting it to beat last year. The main issue with last year was its holiday season, it was terrible in Japan. If SMTXFE along with everything else slated for this year along with the extra surprises that its bound to get I'm sure it should be able to out pace 2014 and hopefully beat 2013 as well.

Yeah I mean if we look at the releases for the rest of the year side by side we have...
Smash vs SMTxFE - arguably the two big releases, the latter has more system selling potential imo. The former is a big software mover.
Bayonetta 2 vs Devil's Third - honestly will probably have the same impact.
Yoshi vs Captain Toad - Yoshi is definitely a bigger and more recognized IP, so it should do more.
Hyrule Warriors vs Mario Maker - I'm not sure about this. HW underperformed in JP, but I'm not sure if the Japanese will care about a level creator. I'll say this is even.
Fatal Frame V vs Star Fox - FFV didn't do much for hardware. Star Fox is just a bigger IP (even in Japan), it should do better.
And of course, that's not even counting titles we don't know about. Like you, I predict 2015 will be better than 2014. Let's just hope Splatoon carries the Wii U until July.
