Big but very short spikes for hardware in Japan this generation, such a volatile market this has turned out to be. Bayo 2 not giving the amazing boost some seemed to believe it would, the effect is likely to be even smaller in the West. 100k first week globally and 300k lifetime?

when Wonderful 101 can do 300k lifetime, Bayonetta 2 should be able to do quite a bit more than that.

Well, TW101 is significantly overtracked in Japan (2013 sales 28k VGC; 14k MC) , and was overtracked back in April in the US (90.5k VGC; 74k NPD) and continued through June (104.5k VGC; 83k NPD).

It is probably around 200k or less right now, so 300k might be out of reach.

I remember why I dislike the internet while being a nintendo fan.
Nintendo does well: "lol doesn't matter they don't exist"
Nintendo does bad: " lol Serves them right, go third party already lolololol"

The real sad part about this are the guys who are enjoying this and happily screaming flop.

Yeah it dropped after the Destiny launch. Why should we assume the Wii U will get a boost from Fatal Frame? If anything it'll stay consistant with this week.

Because even with bayonetta took a 1.3k boost or it can remain the same,ps4 will drop even more unless it has a new game release,as i know it doesnt have any:P also ps4 recently had got 1k boost from a game named samurai warriors which sold first week 20k or 40k i cannot rember loool:P any comment about xbone welfare?It flirts with three digit numbers :P

Expected. I knew it would not do great, but I did think it could last a bit longer above 1k, but next week it'll be below 1k.

Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Ouch. 60-70k lifetime in Japan? Heck; the 360 version of Bayonetta sold 64k first week in Japan and the PS3 version 138.

Nah it'll make it to 200k in Japan -- likely due to strong word of mouth and strong legs of the high review scores along with Ninty's promotion and marketing of the game.

You're joking right?

Not improbable. Bayo 2 had a similiar opening to Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, which has sold 110k copies in about 7-10 months in Japan. Over the next couple years, lifetime sales for that title will probably get to 200k. Why not Bayonetta 2?

I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Even then we're talking lifetime here. It might take some years, but 300k for Wonderful 101 is certainly possible. Even if the game is sold for $5.

Why would any retailer order new copies of the game in the past 6 months? I would be shocked if it did any more than sell out of what's left.

Well how many did they ship?

That we do not know. We have to wait for Platinum/Nintendo financials maybe?

Well, pretty much as I expected. Hoped for more surely, but it was crazy to set too much hopes into Bayo.
