It could, Splatoon has better legs than the Halo franchise, and outsold/pretty much matched Halo 5 on Black Friday. The only problem is that Halo 5 will probably have more time to sell than Splatoon, since the Xbox One's successor will probably be released after Wii U's.

Doesn't that kill the point of legs?

I don't think it does. What I'm saying is that Splatoon has better legs than the Halo franchise, which it does, just that I think it will have less time to sell than Halo 5, because games don't sell as well once a system dies. Count the amount PS3, 360, and Wii games that show up on the most recent update: The most has almost 200,000 in sales, which is lower than 3 Wii U games, and in the same level of sales as 4 Wii U games, (which obviously has a much smaller install base). So when the Wii U dies in the future, I really doubt that the legs of the games will be very good when 1) Games don't sell as well on dead consoles, and 2) The Wii U has a low install base (and there would be little to no new purchases of the Wii U).



Can't wait for The Zelder Scrolls 3: Breath of The Wild Hunt!
