WiiU's Pokken outsold PS4's Street Fighter V at retail in the US, too.

Right, so radio silence from Bandai Namco?

Did their quarter report come out yet? Im surprised they didnt announce sales yet like tecmo did

Yes, they mentioned many games in their report but only ‎‎ ¥ value. But, as far as I could tell they did not mention Pokken at all.

SF sold 1.4 Million according to capcom. In what way can Pokken outsell SF?

Actual sell-through.

For starters about 200k of that was pc so what we got another 200k (seems high) on shelves? So SFV on ps4 at around 1m sold me thinks. Considering the ps4 is going to sell a shit ton in future, the Wii U only 800k and the fact SFV has a ton of support on the way and expected legs, I can't see how it will be outsold.

There's been a lot of bragging about Pokken outselling SFV on this site and I just don't get it. Because in reality it has no chance. Will I brag that SFV sells more? No. But will I laugh that people bragged it wouldn't. Yes.

It's all capcom's fault for realeasing an incomplete game. Seriously, they would've just delay it and with a better critical response it would've sold much better

Poor Capcom, I hope Nintendo buys the company in a couple years. A Pokemon spinoff that some people refuse to acknowledge as a 'real' fighting game is kicking SF's butt. Who would have thought?
