Rayman Origins did not reach 1mil on either console it was released, the Xbox360 version only sold 200k more than the Vita version. How hard could it possibly bomb?

what do you think about ubisoft's expectations though?

If they have any sense - 500-600k

When this game releases WiiU probably won't have a userbase bigger than 4m. Expecting more than one eighth of the WiiU owners to buy the game would be delusional.

LT? If it's LT they will count on the userbase growing :P it won't be 4m forever

If they are smart, higher LTD than Origins on Wii and lower than Origins on all platforms. So about 500k - 2m.

Your entire argument is false because the WiiU is selling well.

By that logic every launch game ever should be successful - these games have the most time to sell. But growing userbase != growing sales for existing games. It might manage a few hundred k extra, but I don't think it'll ever sell 1m retail.

No I'm saying your argument that expecting 500k LIFE TIME SALES from a 4million user base is wrong. It's rather selft explainatory. They will definitely have expectations for the initial sales based on the current user base and life time sales based on expected user growth over time.

I know the demo, I've enjoyed it myself. I still see no way for this game to ever 1m

I'll get it after it gets a price drop, no way I'm paying $60 for a 2-D platformer. (Got Origins at $30)
