Start spamming until you get enough points.. That will probably work!

When it comes to the Wii era, on one part there is the best Mario game ever, a great Zelda game, a good Paper Mario game and a good DKC game, but on the another part there is the worst Mario Kart game, a disappointing Smash game and no Star Fox/F-Zero..


You think Mario Kart Wii was the worst one? :o

I loved Mario Kart Wii, probably the best one for me.

I also wouldnt say that its the worst one, but the best one? :o

What about Double Dash? That game was great!

I have Double Dash

I hate it

Mario Kart Wii and 8 are the best IMO

Yea, I can't see it doing much better then 300-400k lifetime. If we only look at COMG, the game is going to bomb in Japan and Japan is where it's supposed to sell most...

Yeah, Assassin's Creed IV will sell 500K, COD Ghost will sell 370K, Mass Effect 3 will sell 400K, Rayman Legend will sell 750K...

And this Zelda will sell 300K.

Obvius.

Uh? So much wrong with this post. Black flag is currently at 190k, it will be lucky to even sell 250k. Mass effect 3 will sell 400k??? What? It's been there since launch day and it sold merely 150k. Is this a joke post? Then you go on to say rayman legends will sell 750k when it merely sold 350k so far and it's been out for almost a full year. It's barely selling now. Call of duty ghost will sell 350k? It's at 170k right now, I won't even bother telling you why selling 370k lifetime is out of it's reach.

So yes, I keep my prediction, Zelda dynasty warriors won't sell more then 300-400k lifetime. 

Now if you can argue me with numbers that actually make sense, I might give you another reply.

"Black flag is currently at 190k, it will be lucky to even sell 250k."

Want to bet?

I predict that AC IV Black Flack will passed 250K ONLY THIS YEAR.

I you win, i will make all everithing you said.

But If i win, you will become my slave for one month.

Accept? Or you have fear?

You could also look for some good news to make threads out of, should get you plenty of points.

Also, post count > points

I wanted to make some threads already but my english isnt all that great so i've avoided it so far!

I see it doing 600K-800K, no more no less. It's a spin-off title with the gameplay of a series criticized for its repetitiveness.

It will sell good, Nintendo space their releases out well with no third parties to get in the way!



mjo011 on 20 July 2014

I'd say minimum 350k in Japan and at least the same in the West. I'm pretty sure it will do a million.

I know, thats the reason why i said 1 mio. instead of 5.

Zelda WW HD also sold 1 mio. and that is a remake, so why not this game?
It might not be a real zelda, but a lot of zelda fans will still buy it.


Not at all. Most Zelda fans WON'T buy it. WWHD is a remake of one of the greatest games of all time. Hyrule Warriors is a reskin of a series that typically can't hit 1m on consoles with 80m units sold. 6.5m is less than a tenth of 1m, not a fifth, so >50k follows that better. I think the Wii U won't sell much more that 15m before it's discontinued. There's absolutely no way one in every fifteen Wii U owners is buying Hyrule Warriors.

Well we could argue about the max. install base, but lets just take the 15 mio. you said.

Why is it so unrealistic that every 15th Wii U owner buys that game? You gotta keep in mind that we're talking about the next few years and not just this year, so price cuts for the game will most likely impact the sales as well.

The Zelda name will carry it to higher sales than normal Warriors games and this releases in a time where people are hungry for new games. This will be the perfect game to fill the gap untill Smash Bros. U imo. Again, i think the name will carry it to a million, not the game itself.
