Yup. I think so. I believe Nintendo will publicize good this game during this holidays.

Reggie already said he's opinion, and he believe this game will help the Wii U. The last time that Reggie said so, was with Splatoon. People call him crazy...

And at the end...

XenoBlade is a niche game compared to Splatoon ( a shooter) That's true.

Even BloodBorne is a niche game, and it sold 1 million in just 2 weeks thanks a very good marketing.

But BloodBorne is on PS4, a console with the HUGE sales... ok, but so? We already see how can sell a Wii U game even if is a Wii U game.

You guys seriusly underestimate the attach rate of those games.

MARIO KART 8 HAS 85% ATTACH RATE IN FRANCE. OVER 50% AND MORE CLOSE TO 55% GLOBALLY.

Mario Kart is Mario Kart after all... indeed, i don't predict 50% attach rate for XenoBlade.

The Wii U is currently over 10 million sold in, and will increase by end of year of course. XenoBlade should sell good even with only 8 / 10 % attach rate...

And now, is time to talk about Bayonetta 2.

This game even if is one of the best game of this gen so far has bombed hard on Wii U, the reason? 0 ( ZERO ) marketing.

I already said that, with a good marketing even a niche game can sell very good.

First important difference, XenoBlade got a bundle this holidays.

And generally... i just believe in Nintendo.

He think XenoBlade will help Wii U? Let's trust them.

I'm a Nintendo fan? Sure... maybe is this the main reason of why i believe in Nintendo... But that is.

Any prediction? Usually i'm very precise... this time i will go with a very fast: OVER 1 MILLION. Dunno how much more.

Maybe this game will even sell 3 million, 5 million, 10 million, or most likely none :D but i think will sell ok.

And you? Do you think XenoBlade will sell good this holidays? discuss!

I hope so, the game is looking epic

I'm confident it will sell near a million LT, if not more. I honestly don't know how much it'll sell by the end of the year.

It's the Wii U's big holiday game, so I think Nintendo will put a lot of marketing into it.

I guess it all depends on how well they advertise and push the game.

There's definitely some hype behind this game, with the snippets of gameplay we've seen at directs and the treehouse events, and the series does have decent publicity, thanks to things like the inclusion of Shulk in Smash Bros. (even though he won't be in X.)

If Nintendo pushes X as hard as they did with Splatoon, then I think it will do very well.

We can considering Mario Maker a holidays game even if will release in September? If so, Mario Maker probabily will.

If it reach 1 million that would be a major success. The Wii version barely sold 900k with a much larger install base.

I say it will have a hard time getting to 500k. The game might of done much better if it release in October or November. 

Nintendo will treat Super Mario Maker as a holiday game by advertising it in November/December, so yeah I guess it can be considered one too.

But I still think Nintendo will give XCX a big push since it's something totally different and it's likely one of the more expensive games on the console.

Depends on whether or not Nintendo chooses to market it properly. The bundles and special editions are a good sign.

I've already said I believe this game will exceed a million lifetime. But the holidays depends on Nintendo's willingness to go for it. NoA needs to bring that bundle here and not just the special edition. And we need marketing on TV and YouTube. If they do that, I think they can do very well this holiday.

Is already over 100k in Japan withouth digital, and the game is selling better in the other market... 500k is pessimist, expecially if you say is hard.
