Oh Gosh... i have basically just posted the same... next time I should get to the end of the topic instead of letting my Nintendo fire overcome me )))

On one side best for wiiu and impressive yet at same time extremely low for what is likely the biggest franchise and biggest release U is going to get. Call me crazy but this is the Halo Uncharted from Ninty for wiiu. If either of those hit such a number in such a time, impressive it would not be. All a matter of which perspective you roll with.

I think I said 600K. So wrong!

Uncharted =/= Halo in this sort of context. If Uncharted 4 launches at over 1 million then that will be a great result, considering Uncharted 3 is the only one to break 1 million at launch and that was with a comparatively huge PS3 install base.

Halo 3, Reach and 4 all launched north of 3.5 million, so a <1.5 million launch for Halo 5 would be a disaster for the franchise. And not forgetting that 360 install base for Halo 3 launch (the biggest selling of these 3 halo games) was only 12 million, so even with a relatively low Xb one install base expectations for Halo 5 should be pretty big. All the die hard Halo fans, of which there are millions, will be getting a Xb one even if almost no one else does.

But you are forgetting that MK8 is well established popular IP and high selling game whereas Watch Dogs is a new IP which has seen huge criticism before the release about graphics downgrade and sold more than 50% only on small install base of PS4/xbox one.

You'd kind of hope that a big-name game releasing on 5 platforms for which (across the four for which install bases are known) there is a combined install base of over 175 million units would have a higher combined debut than a game releasing on just one platform with an install base just over 6 million. Especially when the former releases a few days earlier in the week, thus having more days to sell for.

Indeed, I'd suggest that, if Watch Dogs doesn't manage to outsell MK8 by a factor of 2 to 1 for the week across formats, then it has been outperformed easily by MK8.

I give you the new IP discussion but as we know critics and low graphic issues don't really matter for this type of  gamers... look at COD Ghost sales... but we will know soon enough!

Don't worry, it has done that. I'll take a stab in the dark here and guess that Watch Dogs PS4 will be the best selling game for the week.

If Halo and Uncharted were released when there was a mere 6 Million consoles sold for each respective platform and they managed to reach 1.2 million in 2 days of availability, then yes, that would be impressive.
