Hmm Infamous and Titanfall were able to achieve those feats without Japan...We can gauge Mario Karts numbers ex Japan Wednesday.


Not for nothing, but Japan wouldn't have done anything to help the numbers in either case.

I'm pleasantly surprised. I did not expect 1.2m even remotely this soon.

R u kidding. I expected the Nintendo Faithful to be out in droves for MK8. It isnt how much software MK8 sells that determines what it has accomplished. It is Wii U sales that will determine if it achieved the goals it needed to achieve.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

Yup, this is what an actual system seller looks like. Poor Titanfall.

They should really already have Wii Us though.

Exactly if the vast majority of sales over the next few months dont include a Wii U on the reciept then MK8 may be a successful piece of software, but that wont be good enough for what the Wii U needs.

Nintendo IP's are the biggest in Gaming history so its not to shocking o.o

If you consider a few hundred thousand crushing another product I would like to see how you rank Call of Duty's sales over battlefield, or Grand Theft Auto over Watch_Dogs...

Either way great great sales for a game on an under-performing system

With they hype TF got, you bet it's surprising. That game was supposed to be the second coming of Jesus, don't you remember all the Wait till titanfall threads,  TF will crush PS4, etc. Let's not revise history here.  The press were on their knees saying what MS wanted them too, calling it the best game ever, etc. Too bad it translate to the Mainstream, MS must have wasted so much money.



When looking at single console sales, yes. Nintendo will always have a disadvantage against mulitplat games.
