Forums - Nintendo Discussion - List of 8th gen, million selling Nintendo IP

Nope go for it, I would like to see the results, but just to let u know this isn't simply games published by Nintendo, it's games based on IP they own. There are a number of games from 3rd parties that Nintendo handles publishing for in the west like Professor Layton, Bravely Default, Fantasy Life, etc. None of these were counted.

Cool, I'll have it up shortly.

Its crazy to think Nintendo has published 40 games that has sold 1ml units in about 5 years. What other publishers can say that?

Yep! That's pretty INSANE! Especially how most of their audience from last gen were abducted by SmartPhone Gaming. 

 

It would be nice for some EA and Ubisoft list too......And other big companies out there (If anyone got time I'll say thanks in advance) 

I'll do EA or activision later today maybe.

For comparison, GC+GBA had 52 games based on Nintendo IP that sold over 1 million. I'll post the list when I get a chance.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Sorry, the quote thing isn't working for me:

"Its that its just hard to believe that the game that did 720k in less than 1 minth cant do 280k in the rest of its life.(less with digital)

And adressing Japan, while physical sales are around 130k, we know for certain that it did 23k in the first month digitally, and assuming the worst and saying that it did only 7k in the next months digitally, the game sits at around 160k, which is basically what the first game made lifetime.Giving a bit more time, it will surely pass that.Just for reference, I think the game made around 150k first year, and X already passed that in around 7 months.So it is outselling the first one, even if just by a small margin."

You're right about digital sales--wasn't properly taking those into account. Digital sales do make it really hard to make any sort of accurate prediction. Taking those into account, I think it will reach 1 mil. I'm still not sure about retail alone, though. It might happen, but I certainly don't think it's a given. Like I said, I don't think it will have the staying power of its predecessor, and RPGs generally don't have very good legs, so yes, even though it's already don't 720k with 1 month in the US (and many more than that in Japan), because that 1 month is December, I think it's still possible it won't do 280k.
