Forums - Sales - Fable Anniversary vs Wind Waker HD

Both of these games are completely remastered and not simply upressed in HD. Both release later this year and for comparison sake the original Fable sold 2.66 million and Wind Waker sold 4.60. Which will sell better this time?

Wii U will greatly reduce Wind Wakers sales. Not because it is bad, but just because hype levels for Wii U games are not where they should be right now.

Fable by a bit.


It could have a turn around by then, also im talking about lifetime sales not just this year.

Wind Waker



Wind Waker almost certainly. Look at OoT for example.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

First years? Fable. Lifetime sales? Wind Waker.

I'm going to have to go with Fable. Wind Waker remake looks horrible compared to the original imo. The style didn't carry over well at all from the screens I've seen. It looks too plastic, and glossy. It's pretty off putting if you ask me



History has been kind to Wind Waker. Upon release it was viewed as a backward step for the franchise with off-putting kiddie visuals. Now it is viewed as a classic with a unique, timeless look. There are many who didn't play WW simply because it was on the Gamecube who have interest in Nintendo products thanks to the Wii. Fable was a good game.

I will say Wind Waker, easily.

I think the re-release of Wind Waker may actually top the original. I think Fable will do about 30-50% of the original.

Not a chance in hell. I'll bet it does no more than 2 mill tops, but personally I think it'll do quite a bit less than even that

Wind Waker obviously.  LIke 80% of Wii U owners will buy it.



Wind Waker HD. It shares the spotlight with far less games on Wii U than Fable HD does on 360. Also, XBox One and its new games will divert attention away from the 360 and Fable HD.
