Want to bet it does more than that? I bet you it does over 40k FW

Edit: You pay attention to COMG yet you predict only 25K? :-/

True they usually sold well, but on a console that has an established audiciente for this kind of games, this title is actually a bet for both Nintendo and Tecmo, as they are trying to create an audience for the genre on the console by using a popular character, that way they could publish more titles on the future. The pre-order number are decent but not huge in any way and the install base of the console is also lower than the one of the PS3, which is usually the recepient of the Dinasty Warriors games.

People are beign conservative, and anything bellow 50k is almost impossible at this point. The most important thing is how many hardware units can this game move, specially for long time Dinasty Warriors fans that usually don´t buy Nintendo consoles, because those are new customers who could buy other games like Bayonetta 2 and Devil's third (and some third party titles, not just Nintendo exclusives)

90,000 to be conservative.

i predict 115,000

I know! I was going to modify it to the Wii U user base and try to estimate the impact of japanese Zelda fans, but I had to go to work. Also I was trying for a VERY optimistic prediction.

Wind Waker (WiiU 2013) First week in Japan: 30 779

Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper (WiiU 2012) First week in Japan: 6 222

Wii U userbase approximately one tenth of PS3.

I stand by my first prediction but if I am allowed to change I change it to: 43 308 (five times lower, as I am five times less optimistic in the evening)

Your prediction would give credit to the bolded viewpoint.

I'll be the brave one and say 404k

I think it will do 97k

no offense but are you high XD

thats one bold prediction

56k
