I don't get why Nintendo didn't bought Level-5 already. That would be profitable for Nintendo in about 3 years.
The publisher part on 1 million of YW2 units sold is about 15 millions $.

I'm gonna predict 700k FW for YW2.

This is just absurdly low Cone. A 700k FW would be very disappointing.

Maybe but similarly I feel like a lot of people are overestimating the game. I just don't see it breaking the million barrier

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

TBH, 700k wouldn't be very disappointing at all. Its just we believe the game will do between 800k-1.2mil FW (majority of us).

700k Is absolutely amazing, its just the hype pushing us to believe something lower would be bad, when all in all the gameis still new and fresh and the original legged its way to 1mil+.

700k is by far impressive for this ip, especially when the game has the best legs in a long time and its japan. Games barely do 300k these days

We believe it'll do 800-1.2 million, it getting less than that is disappointing. Kinda by definition. 700k isn't bad itself, but it's just less than it should. The original legged its way to 1 million because the anime because so popular. It regularly gets more viewers than Pokemon in Japan. I don't think 700k is impressive because of the IP. How low some games sell that get expotentially less viewership/exposure is pretty irrelevant to an IP that is watched weekly by millions of Japanese.

Hmmm.... Tough Call, as i believe 700k is underperforming and a bit disappointing, but i cant help but think 700k is Huge and the original just passed 1.1mil. Seeing as this will have legs, like say AC i dont think starting off 600k-700k is bad. Still i agree with most of your post.

I kno YW is getting more views then pokemon/etc and shouldnt have the excuse of IP, but overall this will be the real first week of the franchise and the start of a Huge IP (talking maybe over 2mil sold lifetime).

Well not a big deal anywayz, Cone put 700k FW, we'll see who's right/wrong very soon
