Can KH3 sell as well as KH1 and 2?

Yes 53 64.63%
 
No 21 25.61%

I think it really depends on the marketing done by SE. Let people know that KH3 is finally here. I remember watching this particular commerical on TV and wanting the game so badly. They need to instill that in peoples' minds once again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONi-czfHigw

I think a commercial like that would really help tbh, would get a lot of kids or parents wanting to buy a game for their kids to pick it up, also the epic music helps lol.  I remember I only picked up the first KH because Donald and Goofy were in it, no other reason XD.  So glad I did.

LT wise yes but it might be slow at first unless both PS4 and Xbox One sell like hotcakes or have sold like it by the time it comes out.


Good thing is SE tends to print their games for a while.

I think it could, the game will most likely be out, at the end off the generation, so there will be a high userbase to sell too

I'm thinking, 4.3m PS4
600k Xone


Why do you think it would take so long?  I think they could get it out in 2 years, maybe 3.



I think it will be the best selling game if its well made (which let's be fair they all are) and ties the story up well. But I almost want it to fail as the higher ups at Squenix need shooting as they're driving a once great company into the ground and the decision to put it on the xbone instead of the WiiU when there hasn't been a single Kingdom Hearts on a microsoft platform yet there's been FOUR (note more than on sony platforms!) on nintendo platforms.

At the very least I hope it flops like hell on the xbone and does great on the ps4 and the WiiU gets a port of the game and does well on the WiiU

I think its on the X1 because its so easy to port games on it now from the PS4 so why not put it on there?  I'm hoping Wii U slales pick up and SE ports it over to there.



Its difficult to tell with the footage shown so far. In theory i would say no. I think it was a huge mistake to release multiple games on multiple systems. It diluted the audience across systems.
I'm not sure the cartoony look will be able to atract as many people as before due to the decidedly more realistic look that prevails on todays games (this is my analysis not what i wish would be the case).

With that said, if theres lack of other software nearby, maybe it will sell ok. I dont see it selling much more than one million at this point though. I also think the Xbox1 version will bomb big time. Its beyond me why they chose to go with that instead of a Wii U version.



Yea. It will all somewhere inbetween first 2 games definitely. After that who knows

I don't see it doing that bad, I mean even the handheld versions sold better than that.

"At this point" i mean with the info and footage shown so far.

I dont expect the PS4 and Xbox1 to have as big installed bases as the 3DS in the same point in time. But, i guess this all depends on when the game actually comes out. My analysis is completely unrealistic if the game only comes out in 2-3 years. I was thinking 1-ish year in the analysis.
