Can you please clarify? I'm not entirely sure of what/how you're referencing.

Your saying that the game will sellless on the x1 . So you said around 10% like halo 4 did. Im saying if we use that logic smash for wii u would have sold only 1.2 million.

Firstly, I did not say that, but I did note that is what trends indicate. Secondly, Halo series trends on XBox consoles are not the same as Smash Bros. series trends on Nintendo consoles. I don't know whay you would arbitrarily slap a random Halo game's attach rate on a random Smash game and append the word "logic." My logic is exclusive to the console and series that we've been discussing, so let's please stay within the relavant context.

 

As I said earlier, as console userbase increased (X360), Halo attach rates decreased (H3, H:R, and H4). X1 has a vastly smaller userbase than the X360 did, when the last Halo launched with a significantly diminished userbase, so it stands to reason that H5's sales would scale down with some measure of proportionality. That's my logic, and I already stated the reasons why trend may not be directly proportional and some reversal may actually be observed.
