Your mistake is relying so much on COMG pre-orders.

Kirby Star Allies had 2/3 the points of Triple Deluxe yet slightly outsold it.

The Switch version of Attack on Titan had more points yet was outsold by the PS4 version.

COMG is a nice tool just like Amazon rankings but they dont always paint the whole picture.

I realize the variance issues with COMG but it provides a good enough ballpark to see if an upcoming release will have any momentum however, so far I still don't see DKCTF on the list yet ... (you'd have to be sincerely concerned how the game would perform if it doesn't show up on the charts in the last week of pre-orders)

Returns 3D didnt show up until 12 days left and went on to sell over 400k so no, there is no need to be concerned that Tropical Freeze hasnt shown up yet with 22 days left.

Returns 3D

Entered charts-12 days to go

Exited charts-59 points

First week sales-~100k

Lifetime sales-~420k
