I see my estimate was already posted.  The issue with the OP is that the Sims 4 is on its third week in the most recent Chart-Track, but the first week on VGC.  So he missed the second week drop of 63%.  It seems VGC has posted the UK chart for the week ending the 13th since then though.

I hope it sells a mil lifetime. Wasn't it doing very well on Amazon us

exactly!i have post this many times...!for me it s a zelda game and for the  most:Pthis wouldnt be a surprise for you...but for three specific members here would be,they constantly downplay it:P for me for you or others is logical to sell far better in the west,for them is not... i didnt understand why!however lets wait for numbers! wind waker HD proves what you said!windwaker hd has been outsold in japan by hyrule warriors unbelievably soon(this happened thanks to the big difference of their opening weeks 30k vs 75K), but ww hd hit 1m+ because of europe and particularly usa!a question to  you,was it wrong that some took japan as an indication  of bad sales in the west?,  is wrong for sure :P

This is the Uk we're talking about, Spurgey!

We know it is. Basic math

Hey, I'm okay with Wii U doing less than stellar because, as a company that takes risks, you have ups and downs. The Wii was high risk and thus it led to high profits and the 3rd gen king. But the Wii U had high risks as well and it can turn out for better or for worse. But that's for another thread, Hyrule Warriors just isn't that big of a deal to many people because well, it's not the next Zelda. I'll buy it sooner or later but I'm more psyched for that Dragon Quest Heroes game! Everyone's going to the O team for hack n' slash fun.

Hyrule warriors will move more systems than people think. Me and my sisters were sitting down watching (we tape them both) gurren laggan or AOT on toonami. We were fast forwarding through it and my sister rewinded it just to see the commercial and Automatically she wants it. Now she would buy a wii U for it but we do not have the money for one or we would already have it, I'm pretty sure it will have the same effect on others who actually have the money to go out and buy the wii U and even if it doesn't do the significant push it will help bolster the holiday season. Both this and bayonetta are some dark horses which may or may not surprise people.

I get the feeling this is going to be a popular gift game. Certainly a number of people will buy it for themselves day 1. Beyond that, friends and family know somebody who 1. Likes Zelda. 2. Wants this game but hasn't bought it 3. Has a wii u / is getting one.

It's an effect that's hard to put into words....

Totally agreed. Glad to hear Nintendo is marketing the game well.

I don't know... a full priced game is too expensive for a gift in my country, so I would not know, do you get many games as gifts? do you give games as gifts?
