Forums - Gaming - Prediction: Fire Emblem Fates Will Outsell Street Fighter 5 Come Feb NPD!

 

Remember this is US only (duh), these games as well as Far Cry and Naruto are the biggest games of the month. That said I think SFV and FE will be top 2, with FE climbing a small victory over SF. 

 

Let's dig into it.... . 

 

Street Fighter has an extra couple of days, huge competitive community, and well... It's SF lol. 

 

Fire Emblem has turned from a niche franchise to a huge hit selling one! Fates has 2 versions of the game, but do not think it'll be double dippers because there is the huge Download the other game that's half the price. And it won't likely be counted in with the sales (similar to japan).

 

Anyway bump this thread when I obviously failed this prediction lmao

 

Thoughts!?

It'll be tough but definitely possible. I'd feel very confident if there wasn't the 50% off for the download of the other copy. Does the SE have a different SKU?



You're nuts. If not for the digital discount for the second version I would almost entertain the idea, but nope.

Would it really be all that surprising now that we know SFV did poorly in the UK and the same will probably be true for the US?

yeah, considering last entrys did 180k and 850k First Month (awakening and SF4)

 

That said SF strongest territory is US, so its not guaranteed at all

wow poor SF5 is gonna get crushed by Fire Emblem of all things.



I know Splatoon managed to blow expectations away, but let's not get carried away now. x )

I'd be somewhat concerned if SFV sold very well in its current state... : X
