Forums - Nintendo - Prediction: Zelda U will be Nintendo's 2015 holiday game for the west while Animal Crossing U will be for Japan

OfficerRaichu15 on 06 January 2015

So pretty much I am predicting that animal crossing u will be announced and released(in japan 2015 with west being early 2016)

to help with sales

then zelda will be out for the west(and japan too as well) to help with sales

possible?

Japan is always Nintendos priority, so they'll get what we get and much more...

Very possible, Japan had Animal Crossing 3DS in holiday 2012 then the west got it the following spring.

Why I think that the holiday title for Japan will be Pokken tournament?:P

Well this actually sounds like a good idea. Zelda doesn't do as well in general in Japan and even traditional Nintendo big-hitters have been struggling there, so Zelda probably isn't going to be a great holiday game and if there's anything that can help tempt them to a Wii U maybe it's one of the games that have done really well there recently like Animal Crossing, rather than Mario or Zelda. And if Animal Crossing games generally hit Japan first before the West then making it a holiday release in Japan then early 2016 for the West is probably the best option, since I'm pretty sure everyone will be too busy with Zelda (and possibly some of the other 2015 games) to care about not getting Animal Crossing.

But of course that makes it pretty likely that won't be what Nintendo will do...

Yeah, I can see that happening!

I hope, simply because that means Animal Crossing is coming.

C"mon Nintendo, you can make good AC online!

Yeah, that's possible. But I'd like to see Xenoblade in there for the West as well.

Also, Japan will have something as well as Animal Crossing. Fire Emblem x SMT perhaps?
