I think it will sell more than P3. It's a new IP that looks gorgeous and fun. Something for the Nintendo fans that's for sure. Add that to the fact that you don't have to see blood and guts for it to be deemed fun.

Depends on the price... If its < $30, then yea, but if its a full priced game, then no


Your kidding right? This game will be more original, with a better story, a whole lot more unique art style, and a lot more interesting gameplay style than call of duty yet it should sell for $30 less? Are you kidding me? It's not an indie game. It's a legit first party game.

Really? It doesn't seem like that big of a title to me... Sure, its 100% more original than anything like Cod but it still seems a lot smaller than what Nintendo outputs. When we get more info, it might change my mind but as of right now, I am not seeing anything $60 worthy. I am not saying its not gonna be fun or anything cause I am sure it will and I will most likely buy it when it comes out but $60 seems too much atm unless they show us something more cause so far, all I have seen is that its a 4v4 shooter with an unique twist and thats about it. I believe someone said that there is going to be single player but till I get more info on that, I say <$30

It'll be Nintendo's runaway hit for the Wii U. It will be the next Animal Crossing for them. It happens to be developed by the same team as well.

It will have a successful start but I see the IP growing in the future just like AC did.

The difference will be, it'll do best in America, and it'll be weaker in Japan with Europe being middle ground. AC didn't do well at first in Europe. 

I see 3 Million+ by the end.

Probably wont push a ton of hardware but i think it will sell well to the existing users. Id say over 1 million.

It will have a SP, local MP and online MP.

Lol this is incredibly optimistic. It won't have nearly as much content or variety as animal crossing.

Yeaa, So in order for it to justify a $60 price tag imo, I would need to see how good the single player experience is... Is the story 10 hours long? Is it 5 hours long? Is the Story any good? and etc, you get the idea

Will sell well. Some people here still think it is a "simple" mp shooter? So they obviously dont know much about this game ... but nonetheless feel the  pressure to comment here :)

 

Local MP and single player campain had already been confirmed. It seems to be a full fledged game.

Is it even a campaign/story mode? The way Nintendo said made it seem like you could play single player with AI opponents.

Doubt it.
