| teigaga said: They better be considering most warrior games sell nothing over here. The question is will Nintendo be happy with that? Probably content but not happy, Hyrule Warriors was supposed to be flagship title and it was even given a decent marketing budget too. It'll likely do nothing to slow down the systems falling sales, but it will make a profit at least. |
Its not even remotely a flagship title. Its a spin-off. The fact that it has marketting, minimal with one commercial, is just a sign that Nintendo is learning how televisions work.
If it were a flagship title it would have launched concurrently globally, and not on the heels of Smash 3DS. It doesn't even have the semblance of a budget for a flagship title, nor would Nintendo risk their Zelda-IP on making this a flagship of the IP or otherwise. They even said what it was during E3, a little off-shoot to keep Zelda fans entertained until the real game comes out. It will give a hardware bump but its not at all aimed to be or positioned to be on the levels of any of the flagships like Smash, Kart, Mario, or Zelda.
a little birdy told me that HW did unexpectedly well in america. that obviously isn't a hard number but i expect worse sale than a mainline zelda but significantly better than a "warriors" game.

Hmm, sounds cool. For now we can await the european numbers, it released a week earlier here.
@amak: I would buy SMT-Warriors. 
| Qwark said: The UK often sells way more games and console per citizen than the rest of Europe so I would say 50k max. The North America might have a Launch week of 100k which would bring the number around 250-300k next week |
Your statement is true for most games but not those from Nintendo. UK is not Nintendo friendly at all.







I think it will do well in North America. The strength of the Zelda brand in N. America, coupled with pre-order bonuses and a Club Nintendo promotion, should lead to some impressive opening numbers.
200k in the west first week would be a great start. they dont sale so many copys of other warrior games lifetime in the west. and for nintendo its a cheap game with hours of pure fan service.
The sales, i dunno, plus we'll need to look at downloads. but the DLC is such a good deal, and i imagine its going to have quite a few buyers, that Tecmo may just be happy with the final results of software sales plus DLC. I for one just purchased the Hyrule pass today.

200K seem possible for europe and US combined. I think maybe 75K europe FW and 125K US FW. But the coming numbers are only europe so far, in the US it released a week later.
