Yeah uh, not going to happen, halo 5 will eclipse splatoon before the years out let alone "in the end"

Well, now that we have first week numbers for Halo 5, let's compare them to Halos 3 & 4.

Halo 3 - 3,811,047
Halo 4 - 3,662,557
Halo 5 - 1,457,849

Halo 4 has been on the market for 156 weeks now, compared to Halo 3 both games sales were:
Halo 3 - 10,924,767 - First week numbers were 35% of that.
Halo 4 - 9,541,543 - First week numbers were 38% of that.

Now if Halo 5 has Halo 3's percentage effect, 155 weeks from now, it would have around 4,165,282 copies sold. If it has Halo 4's effect, it'll be at 3,836,444 copies sold.

And now looking at Halo 3 by itself, it is at week number 422 on the market, and it sits at 12,057,422 copies, and it's first week sell-through is around 31.6% of that number.
If Halo 5 has the same effect, it'll be at 4,613,446 million copies sold, 421 weeks from now...

Now let's look at Splatoon, which as of now, sits at 2,112,178 million copies sold...
And based off these numbers and projections... I do believe that Splatoon has a chance to finish with more than Halo 5.
Granted, it's not a big chance, but it's not a small chance either.
It has a reasonable chance. It's going to get a boost from this upcoming holiday season, granted Halo's will be much much bigger, since it was released right before the holiday season; And Japan especially loves this game, something that could never be said for Halo.
Will Splatoon actually do it? Only time will tell.
But I wouldn't dismiss the possibility.
I don't think it's a Guarantee! But it's not impossible either.

i think that Splatoon will or has outsold Halo 5 but lets not forget that Splatoon costed not everywhere 60$ and MS made a lot of money with Microtransactions. So you can see it either way which sold more.
But props to Nintendo for its smaller user-base

In the United States and in the United Kingdom, Halo 5 will sell more. In Continental Europe and in Japan, the win is for Splatoon.

It's going to be a close one worldwide....

*only taking retail vgchartz sales

Yeah yeah, spin those tentacles all you want, but it's not gonna happen. Just look how competitive the new Halo WORLD championship will be.
Splatoon is just one good game. Not in the same league with Halo. Or COD, Battlefield, Killzone, Battlefront, Counter Strike, Bordelands, Garden Warfare, Overwatch etc...

LOL Not a chance. You seem to forget that this is a busy season and Halo as a franchise tends to have legs. Its one of the most loved shooters on the market. Splatoon looks cool, but no one is really going to be knocking down doors to get it. Halo on the other hand is the reason why mid night releases started in the first place.

People falling for this troll thread and giving the desired reaction.

If serious, shame on you OP

Ryng is one of the biggest Nintendo fans around here, so I doubt he's trying to troll.

Eh ??? No way! Halo is already passed the 2 Millions mark and this is just physical copies. Splatoon 2.4 mill is SHIPMENT (according to VGC it SOLD around 1.8 millions - Nov.21 2015 ) AND digital.
Halo has huge fanbase, im sure the game will keep selling well.

The biggest fans are the biggest trolls. That thread title is blatant trolling, but not quite enough to get thread closed. The best trolls flirt with the line but never cross it.
