WU sold 140k in June NPD 2014.

That's thanks Mario Kart effect. :D

 

For what we know for now, Splatoon is a bigger sistem seller in Japan than Mario Kart 8.

In Japan WU sold 38k in two weeks with Splatoon (17k first week, and 21k second week), and 33k with Mario Kart 8 (19k first week, and 14k second week).

 

So, Question is: Will Splatoon become a bigger sistem seller even in the US? What do you think?

If not 150-200k, there is a chance for 100-120 k?

I really want to say no, because I doubt so, but Splatoon has surprised me.

My final answer'll still be no though, but I'm not all that confident in my answer.



I will go with a no, I mean mk8 is mk8. Splatoon is awesome but against mk8? That would be cray cray

hard to tell, since we don't know how a new Nintendo IP would be received by western gamers.



No. Splatoon will not move as many units as MK8.

Well like he said, it did more for Wii U in Japan so it's not outside the realm of possibility.

Do you think will be close? at least +100k?

Well, Japan has always been an unique case for everything imo. While it is surprising that splatoon did better than mk8 in japan, I don't really consider Japan as an accurate representation of the rest of the world when it cames to anything really. But yes, it is certainly a possibility but we will see
