Splatoon did to shooters what Mario Kart did to racing games and Smash Bros. for fighting games.

Only Nintendo can do this.

First good answer and best answer.

I think it will surprise a lot of people. I don't think it could reach 3M but I'm hoping it could ship around 1.5M LT. But, when "Splatoon 2" launch (and I'm sure it will) it could be a potential system seller. Nintendo is trying to pull another Mario Kart, this time in the shooter territory, and I think they will suceed. Splatoon is the definition of "fun". I was so sad when the hour passed, I need more! :(

Almost.

NOPE NOPE NOPE
nada
its a new ip that only the media and nintendo fas know
it could do 1.5 million shipped though.

Ultrashroomz said:
I don't think so.

Platina said:
I doubt it

Captain_Yuri said:
Probably not unfortunately, would be lucky to make even half of that

gergroy said:
Nope, doubt it will even sell a million honestly. I'm expecting W101 numbers...

Mummelmann said:
There are five 3 million sellers on the Wii U and all five are either Mario games or Nintendoland. So; no, 3 million is way too high an expectation. 1 million should be considered a raging success imo.

Ka-pi96 said:
Very very unlikely.

Barkley said:
No lol, it'll be very lucky to reach 2 million.

DialgaMarine said:
Way too high imho.

Nogamez said:
No way too much maybe 650k lifetime

NobleTeam360 said:
Nope, then again I don't think it'll even hit 750k.

iceland said:
Will it even do half that or 1/3 of that? I doubt it

spemanig said:
Maybe one million.

JWeinCom said:
Probably not. It's a niche sort of game, but it should have good word of mouth. A million would be a pretty big success. I'd guess 750K.

sundin13 said:
Not a chance, imo. It will be lucky to break 1mil and I think it will probably end around 850k.

TheMagicMax said:
I'm pretty sure that it will reach a million but 3? Not very likely.

This are some of them. Thankyou for the MultiQuote!

The fact that you feel the need to continue to quote me on this is quite amazing as well; the third time now?

I was wrong. Splatoon sold very well. Congrats.
