Forums - Sales Discussion - October Sales battle: Bayonetta 2 vs Sunset Overdrive

Tagged games:

 

Who sells more?

Bayonetta 2 156 49.37%
 
Sunset Overdrive 159 50.32%
 
Total:315

Two exclusives.

Moneyhatted by their respective console platform holders

From reputable studios who've published great, highly acclaimed games in the past, but rarely have titles that sell well.

Relatively similar pre-orders

Both have unique, ambitious artstyles.

Both promise to do something different in the action genre.

Which will sell more? Bayo 2 or SO?

 

Bayo 2:

+Great reviews

+Bayo 1 included

+Wii U owners don't have many other options

+Larger userbase

+Releases earlier

-May not fit the userbase

 

Sunset Overdrive:

+Bundle effect

+MS's marketing > Nintendo's

+Probably more potential buyers than Bayo 2/Wii U

+/- X1 owners have other options

-Reviews still under embargo

-Releases later



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Around the Network

I still think bayo 2 will win since by all the retailers sunset just entered into the top 40 when bayo 2 has been there
I predict 120k for sunset overdrive
165k bayo 2



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

Raichu's First Series:

First RPG?

First Fighter?

First Racer?

First Shooter?

First MMO?

First Horror?

Official Ni No Kuni Fanboy:

Familiars Captured:37

Game Beaten: 2 times almost

Times I got teary during some scenes: 3

Hmm, I am wondering how the reviews are going to be for Sunset but I will say Bayonetta 2 cause it seems to be more hyped than Sunset but thats only from my observation and not really a fact



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

Sunset Overdrive I guess.



If you're interested in Nintendo content and understand german, maybe you want to take a look at my youtube channel! :)

White Xbox one will help Sunset to win 200k worldwide, bayonetta should do 130k



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Around the Network

I think Bayonetta 2 will sell overall more in October than Sunset Overdrive but as for lifetime sales I think it's the opposite ...



Bayonetta 2 wins



Sunset Overdrive. I think it would of been close if there was no Sunset Overdrive Bundle.

All i know is Bayo2 will do much better than many expected, thats for sure.



One Vote for Bayonetta 2. I'm getting both though



I'm gonna take a risk and say Bayo2 will win. I think both titles are going to end up around 1m lifetime.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
