It has to stay in the top for weeks to be huge like MK8. At least top 20 for awhile.

Being number 1 is common for semi big-big titles cuz pre ordering when announced. After a week, then come backand we'll see!

Lol,wa be specific. Wat is flop? Under100k lifetime?



Not sure if it'll do huge, but I'm sure the latest screenshots got some Japanese players hungry.



Yep.

Around the Network

Not particularly. I mean, a lot of Musou fans are 'Three Kingdoms' fans, for instance, or 'Warring States' fans. I'm not sure they'll care. On the other hand, I'm not sure every Zelda fan will want to play Hyrule Warriors if they aren't already a Musou fan.

The biggest audience will probably be die-hard Nintendo fans who have always wanted to play Musou games.

Edit:  Also, this revived trend of citing Amazon for software is getting out of hand.

Less than a million of course, given that Tecmo is expecting to sell that much, LOL.

that doesn't answer my question. Tecmo would like it to sell a million, that doesn't mean for example if it sells 300k or 500k its a flop. Only 1 DW game sold 1 million this past generation (out of 10+)

Well the Zelda name ain't gonna sell it there, but it should do decently.



It'sssss number one Amazon Japan now.
