The free game was downloaded more times than the 10$ game? :O

Who would have expected that?

Maybe you missed the thread the other day when some user was saying this will sell over 300 million paid copies lol

One person on the internet is hardly representative of the expectations for a game, I never expected Mario Run to have more downloads than Pokemon Go due to obvious limitations (only ios, 10$ price) however I do expect that it will give Nintendo way more money than Pokemon Go did.

"Who would have expected that?"

"This person"

"One person doesn't count"

"The why did you ask the question?"

He simply answered your question. If you didn't want that answer, you could have phrased it differently. Also, he's not the only one.

Except my question was clearly rhetorical lol and if you are going to answer to my question "who would have expected that the free game was downloaded more times than the 10$ one?" then the correct answer is not "this person", it would be "everybody but this person" and that's the point of the question, to make you realize by yourself that this was the expected thing for mostly everyone.

I wonder what Shareholders expected. The game is iOS only at this point and it was just released. In the UK Nintendo holds the two top positions for paid downloads (just checked the german store: It's the most popular free app and the highest grossing app).

In essence, Nintendo is absolutely dominating the App Store with Mario and Pokemon but investors (and hardcore gamers on forums) are still disappointed.

As far as we are aware, the game is being extremely well receive, being in the top grossing games in numerous countries.The reason why investors are backing out is most likely because the game has no microtransactions and is pricey.They dont care if the game is fun or if its going to have 100 billion downloads, they care if the profits are going to not only be big, but gigantic.And the profits will be just good.The bigger gain will be to Nintendo, with the brand awareness and possible translation into Switch sales by march.

Exactly. Investors are whining over the fact that it didn't do even more when it already did so much. It's plain stupid.

Maybe they expected another pokemon go. The game is doing great but I think investors that made nintendo's shares to go record high for pokemon (when it wasn't even their game) thought Nintendo could do that repeatedly.

Anyway, what matters is that Nintendo can make easy money from this and that will only grow as this is released in android

If it was cheaper I would have bought it. $10 is already higher than majority of the mobile titles and on top of that, it only has 24 levels! And always online drm!

If this flops, it's Nintendos fault for not understanding the market
