This is the same guy who was the first to not only record the ARMS tournament, but to record over 4 hours. He's pretty excited about the game, and takes his research seriously, gives respectful discussions, and respects his sources.

What discusses pretty much lines up with my hopes about this game's perception as well as more people taking motion controls seriously (mainly more devs puting effort into making it work well).

EDIT:

Youtube link plz. 😊

strange that it's not showing up. I can see it clearly.

Anyways here ya go

  Some mobiles don't show youtube embedded links, Wii u's browser is one of them.

This bodes very well. Hopefully, the game gets the Splatoon treatment with lots of free post-release content. Would be very cool.

Anyway, like where this is going.

Still hoping for a testfire style demo for this one.....

Read the feature for myself today. It's very positive. Edge seems unaware that Smash Bros exists though.

I think it's going to pass 10M.

- Unique take on a classic genre (that's become stale, imo).
- SP/2P/4P/party/online/competetive/'gentle excercise' game.
- The 'hardcore' are starting to admit that motion controls are superior.
- Accessible with tons of depth.
- New colour option and a new accessory to keep motion control fully charged.
- Boxart with female character beating up male character = hit with the ladies.

10 million is a lot. I think 2/3 M is very reasonable, if Nintendo can continue to push the NS like they are doing now.

If it was just a singleplayer + online game for the boys I'd agree with 2-3M. I think it'll have much broader appeal. Just Dance user reviews show some buyers bought it as an aerobic/light workout game, Wii Sports was used a similar way. I think Arms will join that list. Not to mention it's the Mario Kart team and they're pretty good at making games easily accessible/games for everyone.

I'll be tagging for later
