Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Can Splatoon Sell/Ship 4mil+ Copies WW Lifetime? [UPDATE: 4.06mil By First Years End Only!)

While is certanly difficult, it is possible, seeing that splatoon is doing good at the launch.And as Mario kart 8 and smash bros, Splatoon is a title that will(probably) be supported through all of Wii U cycle, getting new content and such.So i dare to guess that Splatoon sales will come mostly from its legs.And if it has even half of the monstruous legs that mario kart 8 has, it certanly can reach 4 million in a couple of years.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Is possible, I think 3 milions is more reasonable.

But please can we stop with this threads? If the game ends up selling 2 milions it would be a success but it would look like MEH, and many people will use this predictions as a weapon. FW numbers can give us a more clear view of this, just wait until we have those numbers before making this risky predictions.

Between all this predictions "1 million in a month" then "1 million in 3 days", then "4 million lifetime and we don´t even know fw sales", you guys are making it so easy to be dissapointed when even 2m would be a huge surprise just 1 month ago.

Whoa, first Tolu, now you. You guys are going insane.

Let's aim for 2 million first, shall we?


Again, im not predicting 4mil, these threads are suppose to be higher than most expectations and asking if it can make it to "insert #" sales.

I already have my prediction on this game lifetime, and and have a prediction of ths game selling 1mil within its first month (jnue 30th)

It might not be a prediction, but it's still an exaggeration. 3 million is already unlikely.


How is 3mil unlikely? A month ago 1mil was unlikely going by everyone's predictions. :-/

Has the potential to do so. But it's up to Nintendo.
I think it currently it would be 3.1m max due to legs, though its likely a highly inaccurate guess as we don't know any numbers yet.

Although it looks like Japan will get 130K FW at least.
