We can potentially see smash do 2mil fw in japan. That would make it one of the biggest debuts ever in japan even beating out many pokemon titles.

SSBU has 2 major things going for it thia time that can push it over the edge

Poor Wii U, you deserved more than this

So, 1317 is the target to beat on the preorders. Looks more than feasible with that start. Wii U alone might even be overtaken before summer ends

This one is hard. All 3 are all over the place. KH3 i think will be bigger than many expect. Ill say minimum 400k fw. Ill go with 550k. Hopefully it does close to if not more than a mil lifetime.

 

Pokemon FW 1.2mil i was feeling it at first but im not optimistic on it in japan atm.

 

Smash realistically is looking like a 800k-1.2mil opening. But knowing who i am im gonna go super optimistic and say 1.8mil, maybe even 2mil.

Totally agree on Pokemon.... at the moment I'm not even sure whether it will be 1 Mio FW: COMG performance + amazon JP performance make me think that it won't be THAT big of a thing in japan … I could be wrong and it picks up steam dramatically later on as we are still far away from its release

For Smash I see AT LEAST 1.3 Mio FW - not gonna be super optimistic with 2 Mio , but i rather go with 1.5 Mio!

This would be that 1 time going for it if a game would sell2mil.

 

SSBU got that switch momentum going for it (most games doing much better than previous franchise entries) and on top of that the game releases in dec. Only install base would be holding it back a bit but if splat2 can do 700k fw with an install base of around 1.5mil then smash can do it. With around 6 maybe close to 7mil?

Well I will not rule out the possibility…. I mean 2 Mio are alot for Japan - only very few games have passed that mark (Pokemon Black/White for sure, I think Monster Hunter on PSP maybe and wasn't Dragon Quest IX also over 2 Mio?) ---> those are together with Animal crossing by far the biggest franchises in Japan
