I Know this is sudden but hear me out! Amazon has a top 100 list of best sellers for each year (includes games as well as HW and accessorys). Now this time we are looking at Super Smash Bros for 3DS.

Note: It already surpassed games in pre orders that will/already did 100k lifetime such as Mario Party (3DS) / Freedom Wars / SAO /DK/etc

 

Pre orders just opened up in japan retailers a week ago. SSB like many other big games jumped up to number 1 on the hourly best sellers list. This is by no means a big deal of course (this is where many get so mad at others for several reasons), but on the other hand, the list that is best sellers of 2014 is.

Now i've been paying attention to this list for awhile now, and when new games come in that are going to be big or sell a good amount in japan, they obviously make the top 100 list. But they go up in a rank or 2 every couple of days. Ex of big games to do this are Persona Q and MK8. MK8 is the second highest seller of 2014 on amazon, and it started to crack the top 20 the last month of pre orders which took about 6-8 weeks to get there! Persona Q as well but to a lesser extent.

Now for SSB for 3DS. The list updates once a day, and now with just six days of opened pre orders, SSB for 3DS has already made it to the 19th best seller of 2014 right behind several big named games! This **** gonna be f***ing HUGE

Thoughts? How much will this game open up with FW? It still has 85days+ of preorders left :)

Resevered!!!!

Wow, 19th in amazon yearly sales? That's awesome. It's been first on hourly sales for a while. I guess the 3DS version is going to be big in Japan.



Poll Added!

Like I said inthe op, its common to see mid-high tier games at the top of the best sellers (hourly), due to huge pre orders in the beginning. Thats why i look at the yearly best sellers to see what doing good/etc.

Japan is much easier to tell than US as US amazon has games pre ordered there for a long time. Ex: MK8 is #1there for 2014 best sellers but watchdogs ps4 (currently 7th) had huge pre orders in 2013! Japan they open pre orders 2months-4months before release date (exception of a few of course)

Last thing, Predictions are for japan only!

Had this problem in another thread lol




Ok will only update when it moves up. So we have it at 19th on June 19th and it moved up by 2 so its now 17th on June 20th!


So it jumped, its now the 9th highest selling sku on japan amazon and it has over 10 weeks left intill release!

Super Smash Bros is going to be very big this October.



that's great. but how does this translate to COMG chart? Are those pre-orders not included?

If so, the game will be massive. 500k possible!

Possibly though this is bad news for WiiU!



Switch!!!
