Thats actually an ok prediction, some here and alot on gaf thought lifetime sales would be 200k-500k at best!

Funny thing is Splatoon is a new ip from Nintendo. Something alot of people i guess underestimate (you know, the usual Not a Mario/Zelda game = Failure :P)

Well to be fair, my prediction was made before the demo and the marketing campaign announcement.  After that I was feeling that I have to change it but never did.  Only change my metascore prediction from 76 to 81 after watching the demo.  Should have follow my feeling.  At least I wasnt in the 250k-300kLT prediction because they are looking very silly right now..

Whats even more crazy is that same thread on gaf even after Demo/heavy campaign some people still thought the game would do W101 levels of sales (or bomb/flop).

Looks like you were spot on on the meta, funny thing is if the game was fully complete and single player was full fledge (hello Splat2oon) it would be a 90+ game imo.

Complaints were directly from this^
