No, I understand what you mean.  You don't hear me dancing up and down about Destiny or Halo Bundle.  Those games can suck a lemon. 

But, would you at least admit to understanding that this is one of Nintendo's big franchise and it is a big deal in the gaming world?

All hail the coconut king, who raises the mighty cattle of eslroadood and grooms them to fight in the fierce war of glaburners and garflingers until the bright early stars graze the moons with their celestial rays! All HAIL THE COCONUT KING!

This is the internet... you should always ask that question unless you know for certain it isn't or you are into that sort of thing.

Been hearing a lot of negativity regarding playing the game on the 3ds from twitch streams. Odd decision not to release the New 3DS alongside the game.

Literally haven't heard a single word of negativity.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Copied and Pasted

So on gaf found interesting news. Rumor of initial 800k shipment. This is all retail games. This is huge because of 2 reasons. The first being the game mostly got out of stock within the first day and another rumor of a second shipment arrives Sunday (or Monday). The second reason is they have download cards which famitsu tracks down. That should make Famitsu more reliable than MC this coming week (according to gaf).

Seems as though 700k is indeed the lowest it will do. Include digital codes, digital sales, retail, and hopefully second shipment and one million is possible. Oh my Lord.



Interesting from gaf

Too low young one. Stores are all sold out (majority) since yesterday. If shipment is really around 800k, then the game sold over 700k day one. Problem is a second shipment might not come on Sunday cutting some sales into the following week.
