Hmmm. Off topic question.

Can that Smash bros controller be used for other games, or is it only for Smash Wii U.


As of now, only for Smash Bros.

:( 

I hope they add more functionality, as GC controller was my favorite. 

Thanks though!

Around the Network

The hype is massive right now. I haven't felt Nintendo related hype on this level since the Wii's first year on the market. I'm going out on a big limb here and saying it open with 1m+ in the US or very close to it.



Nintendo said pre orders for SMash were higher than MK8. MK sold 2 million in it's first week. 1.2 on it's first day. So more than 2 million in the first week.



650K

There aren't reports of complete sell-outs of the game (except the Bundles), so I wouldn't expect super huge numbers.

650k^ is super huge numbers Lots of people were surprised with MK8 debut (mostly because other big games excluding NSMBU sold less than expected!!!)

Also the game and accessories are actually all running out. And Nintendo shipped alot, but demand for the adapter was immense. My gamestop didnt get one in, now i have to wait :-/



Around the Network

810 is my guess



No way... FW will be 470k and not more.

I'm trying to compare it to like Halo MCC.. which sold what? 600K FW. Both are pretty big system sellers. Although that number may be well off. I want to say it won't do more than Halo FW numbers whatever that really is.

I'm going with 490K FW NA, may prove me wrong. Plus Halo had a lot of negative reception for online...

it will do a lot more than a collection. 1m+



I bought mine at my local gamestop store yesterday, and the employee told me it was the first time he saw a so big enthousiasm for a game since almost 2 years and first time they sold so many copy in only few hours



Worst scenario 500,000
Best scenario 1,000,000

I said 800,000.
