I have 619k for GameCube's second December.

Well, I took that information from gaf. But regardless, a 29k difference isn't huge.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

So much for GT6.

People need to really understand how amazing it is that Nintendo keeps their franchises relevant for so long, it's not an easy thing to do.

I hope you're going to post in the GT7 thread when its released.  I think you're going to be disapointed. 


Honestly Sony can't sell software for sh*t the last two holidays. 

LBP Karting - Bomb

Playstation All-Stars - Bomb

GT6 - Dissapointment

Killzone Vita - Bomb

Tearaway - Bomb

Puppeteer - Bomb

They need third parties to carry them. Uncharted 4 will sell great though, so I guess there's that. 

The Last of Us? Killzone Shadow Fall? Beyond? 

TLOU isn't a holiday release. Beyond didn't seem to do that great either though to be honest. It wound up in the discount bins awfully fast.

The 2014 holiday period will be the real battle - 2013 was just the opening skirmish.

the solution to that is easy, just make me a mod.

Take your place Banana... you are just a sub-mod.

Rol for Mod King .


i honestly want rol to be a mod, even though i would guess there is a 50% chance i would get permabanned as soon as he gets his mod powers.

i dont want to be head mod, but just give me the ability to ban, thats all i am asking for

Cmon Nintendo, release your PR, we know you did at the very least OK!

TLOU just hit 4 million.  I'm not saying thats bad by any means but if thats the best Sony can do then they will have some serious problems moving forward, unless pretty much everything they release can get to 4 million.   DKCR on the Wii sold 6 million, and people act like Tropical Freeze will have zero impact on Wii U sales.

Its great that all 3 new consoles are selling so well. Cant wait to see what the future holds.

Sony relies on third parties to sell their consoles, their games are kinda like window dressing. DKCR I think benefitted a lot by that large Wii U userbase (NSMBU sold 20+ million after all), DKCTF should not have big expectations placed upon it, that's unfair.
