Forums - Gaming - Regarding Bayo2 sales...

Burek on 16 January 2015

I always hope that any game I have no interest in fails miserably. I look at it strictly through the law of averages: the less people buy games I hate, the more they will buy games I like, thus increasing chances of more games I like and less games I don't like.

Bayo2 was outsold by Sonic Boom in the US, enough said.

I agree with this.  Though i do recommend people to relax with calling everything a flop from 1-4 weeks of sales.  Most games dont sell millions in the first week and people who have been on VGC for a while should know this by now.  

Yeah, this would be nice. I have no problem with people discussing a game that's had a weak launch week/period, but many are way too quick to use that limited data to declare the game a permanent flop. Often these "flops" go on to pull in decent/good LT number.

This is the key point really. Not every game needs to sell millions to be a success; and the game is fine with me with sales which are alright to boot. 

I don't understand a lot of these comments, but let's try and keep things on topic now.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Because they blindly try to call down what they can't have.

They're too stupid to understand that the attach rate on the Wii U is sill way higher than Bayo 1 for Xbox and Playstation.

Wii U fans: "I'm enjoying this good game. Thank you, Platinum Games."

PS4/Xbox One fans: "Ha! Graphics! Sales! I can't have the game so it sucks!"

Who has the kiddy fanbase again?

Attach rates for new games on old consoles gets more meaningless as the generation goes on as people buy 2nd or 3rd consoles if not covered under warrenty, slim versions. Etc. Unless you believe there were 80million PS3/360 users in 2013?

Much like the original Bayonetta, big legs or good sales will only be the result of major discounting. It's been 10 weeks since launch, I don't think it'll get much better without some help.

Yes it's a site dedicated to sales discussions but why we need multiple threads on this topic?

Why is that that anything negative to do with Nintendo ends up with 20-40 pages of comments and anything positive ends up with like 2-5.

Then when some game hits a million on PS4 or some CGI trailer comes out ad all the guys in there celebrate like they just scored a threesome and it blows out to 40 pages of it lol.


It's called double standarts.

I know. It's like, why are people on a sales website interested in sales? IT IS A MYSTERY.


Smart-ass post, huh? *looks in disapproval*

If you read the OP I'm not talking about being interested in sales, I'm talking about the double standards regarding this game in particular.

No. Sonic Boom sold half of what Bayo 2 did. 



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

At least the pathetic port-begging/speculation is gone.
