You guys really think Kingdom Hearts sales are bad? I predict it to sell about as good as other recent games.

They are very bad.

The budget, & scope of the game is similar to KH:BBS and the sales are way way below that.

Legs could have saved it but the 2nd week drop is pretty big...hopefully it will still show some legs from here on out.

The sad thing is the game itself seems to be very good going by user reviews.

The reason is either low 3DS userbase or franchise fatigue or S-E fatigue (since other S-E games have underperformed a lot too).

Do we have any news on how much was shipped vs sold for the game?



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I read on neogaf they shipped 333k copies. The good news is that they're coing to sell that. The bad news is it's going to take 5 years.

This is what happens when you ruin a franchise with these spin-off titles lol, it wont even reach 350K

@Vic Viper

Oh so it's not like it was horrendously overshipped. But yeah it will take a while for all the stock to be sold.

I think it must at least make a small profit & produce enough goodwill for the next KH to do well. (which will hopefully be KH3)

@Turkish

Hopefully they get the message now. This is the first major KH underperformer I think.

@VXIII

Leave him alone!

It's KH fatigue I think, which is a shame because I reckon the 3DS will be blamed for the poor sales

Lol! I'll try to post the famitsu top 10 next week because I know where the original source is.

Anyway, I want acevil to do MC thread. I just want to try to beat Acevil once although I already did before because 4gamer didn't give their numbers on time and I found another source.
