Forums - Nintendo - Good Sign For Fire Emblem Fates in the US? Birthright/Conquest are above SF5 on Amazon...

 

Before people make it out to be something else, I'm just saying basically that maybe FE will actually do well, not putting Street Fighter 5 down. 

 

Anywayz despite today being the release of SF5 both Birthright and Conquest are above it on the hourly charts. Birthright being ahead of the sku for a couple of days  now... 

 

There are other SF5 sku including special editions but so does FE with both games together in one... 

 

Maybe this is a good sign for FE? Awakening opened up with 180k, 120k being retail. Maybe both games can actually sell well, this excluding digital? 

 

Thoughts?

Around the Network

Extrapolating based on Amazon is really inaccurate. Fire Emblem should be fine. Around the same as Fire Emblem Awakening give or take a couple of hundred thousand. With digital sales it should be higher if you consider people buying the second or third game at half price.



Eh I'll take it with a grain of salt. What I honestly see as a better indicator of better sales is the fact that there is actually a commercial for Fates on TV as of late.

At your first comment, I know it's not as accurate. It's just kind of surprising both games that come out soon is above the biggest release of the month (on the day it came out). But it's amazon....  Lol. 

 

As for your digital comment. I wish nintendo have us actual figures. We know the game sold in Japan around 550k-600k. But they didn't give us the figures for downloads for half the price. :/
