I expected much more of a hardware effect from smash. But the hardware boost it possibly in line with software sales.

thats awesome^ but unless nintendo lied 2 times in official reports... its currently 232k+ and thats back in Oct. Like previous stated, maybe there were over 100k DL Cards sold. Makes sense especially with the first 3 weeks with stock shortages and mostly sold out.

Edit: Need Proof? I'll just show the latest, idont want to dig up for tht 1.88mil Sold back in Oct.

SSB 3DS sells over 2mil copies http://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/2014/141209.html

Media Create is where nintendo uses the numbers, by Dec 7th the game sold at retail 1788k. Subtract the difference and digital is no less than 212k here^ 

doh has to be dooom

No surprise there, Smash and Wii-U lower than expected but that's what happens if you launch you release on 3DS in handheld gaming dominated Japan. Also most people who are interested in the game probably already own a Wii-U. Though less than 10k more than what PS4 did is pretty bad.

Looking at the bigger picture though by releasing it in 3DS aswell Nintendo will sell more in total than if they kept it on Wii-U exclusive.

I hope they got the mensage this time. Samurrai Warriors needs to be 3Ds exlcusive 

Smash quite a bit lower than I was expecting and the boost smaller as well.

Eh. I guess those kind of sales are to be expected in the current Japanese video game market.

Still I was hoping for Smash to sell a little bit closer to the numbers MK8 put up.

Yeah me too^ The sales are disapointing/underwelming but people who think it flopped >_>

Edit: Oh i forgot about PSN, Hardware held on pretty good but i dont think the game will have legs with that drop, the game should still be very profitable with 150k+ lifetime.

The d00m will never end, that's for sure!

Expected much more from Smash but oh well.
