I will personally kill every Wii U owner who didn't buy the game.

On a serious note, it did ok all things considered, I hope it has good legs. Also, last time I checked it was number 1 on the eshop, which I found pretty surprising considering it's size, but in any case the digital number are probably pretty low regardless, I would be surprised if it sells even 10k digitally.

A majority are children,  dont hold it against them. Lol

Children will most likely kill themselves or get scared for life when playing this game....or a few hundred broken controllers, that should be enough punishment.

As long as it is successful enough to make a sequel then ill be thrilled. Would love to see them be more similar to the original trilogy, expanding on scenery and themes while also expanding on the animal buddies.

I hope everyone realize this is only 2 days of sales(February 21 and 22) ....almost 200,000 units sold in two days is not bad at all ....this game will easily sell over a million games in its lifetime it would be foolish to think it wouldn't

Maybe people are tired of plat formers  or maybe it's just not good....

have you ever thought of that?

problem still is it didnt move hardware, so all you have is the people who already own a WiiU getting the game.

I'd take a platformer over your rubbish FPS COD or GTA any day of the week.

It did relatively fine for the wii u install base I guess. Though, it didn't seem to move more consoles.

I dont know why people are surprised that another Nintendo platformer didnt move many Wii U systems, when Nintendo have already released New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U and Super Mario 3D World on the platform.

It was never gonna move a substantial number of consoles, it was always going to appeal to the people who love platformers - The people who already own Wii U.
