Well, here are two games that really have very few hype around. Devil's Third and Rodea The Sky Soldier. It's very probable this titles won't reach the million units sold, and there's a very real risk that they both flop.Both have gone through developement hell and have been deemed vaporware for quite some time.
Which one will sell better? Devil's Third has some advertisement behind it, while Rodea is going to release in two platforms, the WiiU and 3DS (and probably the Wii, but I'm not sure that version will be released separately).
EDIT
So, after a couple of weeks of both games released, we can see some numbers. So this is the poll at January 12, 2016
Sales numbers come from VGChartz.
Numbers for Rodea the Sky Soldier
| Rodea the Sky Soldier | WiiU | 2015 | Action | Nippon Ichi Software | 0.07 | 0.01 | 0.01 | 0.01 | 0.09 |
| Rodea the Sky Soldier | 3DS | 2015 | Action | Nippon Ichi Software | 0.02 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.03 |
First week numbers:
| WiiU | 04th April 2015 | 3,167 |
| 3DS | 14th November 2015 |
12,914 |
Numbers for Devil's Third.
| Devil's Third | WiiU | 2015 | Action | Nintendo | 0.03 | 0.01 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.04 |
First week numbers:
| WiiU |
29th August 2015 | 1,854 |
So, with numbers combined, Rodea (0.12m) beats Devil's Third (0.04m). Rodea sold three times the amount of Devil's Third without all the "promotion" of DT. Also, it's interesting to see that the 3DS version of Rodea lost, while the WiiU version was the strongest. I predicted Rodea would win, but I thought that the 3DS version would be the one pushing the game, and it turns out it was the worst selling version of the game by a lot. At least I didn't bet about it, so the crow on my fridge can wait for other ocasion.
