DId a quick search. 0.9m! Are you even serious. Even if it's bad it'll sell more than that, because the 3DS recovered and has an install base.

Awesome! Can't wait. I really enjoyed the first one and this one looks great.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

I don't think I've ever seen a gameplay video of this game (or franchise even), so I have no idea how it plays


Just for comparison sake, have you ever played or seen Mario Sunshine?

Only seen a few videos. 


Well, imagine Mario Sunshine, but locked into a Mansion àla Resident Evil 1 (With puzzles and locked doors too! But no typewritter), but instead of spraying everything with water, you have with you a vacuum cleaner that allow you to catch ghost. Catching a ghost is no easy task, you need to reveal it with light (àla Alan Wake, but it would be better to say that Alan Wake was inspired by Luigi's Mansion (?) ) and then go for it. There were some npc's here and there, and the story have a small (not small, but everyone saw this coming, it didn't make it less impressive) twist when you reach the basement. The final boss is pretty good, and you have to catch 50 boo's in order to see the true ending. There are also money, but other than changing some things from the ending it did not affect much the game. (It gave you a rank, though, based on how much money you had). It did not have replay value, though. (I'm not sure if playing a second time changed something). And it was not very long (I beat it in one sitting), but it is probably one of Nintendo's most unnapreciated gems.

Indeed. Just look at Sticker Star - 3DS is so on fire that lukewarm reception to a spinoff sequel doesn't matter.

So what? The bet is locked at 2m. Should I be worried?


What timeframe? If it's lifetime sales, that might be some cause for concern.

I didn't find the bet, only your prediction. 2m is more reasonable I guess.

By the end of 2013.


Then you clearly know how to play the odds.

I come in here to chec on luigi's mansion thread (since i added it to NintenDomination) and i see my bet being talked about lol. Does my bet sound bad? 2mil by years end? I kno it'll sell a mil easy, even 1.5mil. My prediction is 3.2mil by years end, holiday+pokemon= other games more sales!

i'll lmao if by years end it end up as 1,999,999 and lose the bet. Jus cuz you didn't buy the game. Anyway still enjoy the game(purchase it). Pls dont stop gettin the game cuz of a bet. I'll cancel it if it means you'll buy it. Its gonna be a great game (unlike paper mario was)

For further clarification on the bet, the entire "you are on drugs" thing started, because tbone51 repeatedly put Luigi's Mansion in the same group as Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, NSMB and SM3DL when it came to sales. Also, I don't know how serious he takes the whole drug thing, but the answer seems to be "very much".


I think I remember that thread. Didn't he also predict that Fire Emblem: Awakening will go on to sell over 2 million, or is my memory overexaggerating?
