Another nice trailer. Nintendo still knows their marketing :).

What they need to do now is just a marketing blitz; TV ads on popular channels so that tons of kids and parents see it. Really put it out there in the public eye.

That big blitz may only come at the holiday. Nintendo could be doing a softish launch to gauge interest and go full on at the holidays.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

I have a feeling Labo will start off relatively slow and be prematurely called a flop by detractors, only to pick up steam in the Christmas holiday season and go on to sell very well lifetime.

We all have different definitions of "very well" ...

I would think we all could agree that between 3 and 5 million would be very well. Most games don't even sell those numbers .

Have people be seeing a lot of advertising for Labo?

I don't watch much TV anymore and i use ad-block online so i can't really notice .

I thought it meant selling 5M+ units ... (along the lines of well established and renowned AAA franchises) 

It would be an interesting proposition to open a thread and see the confidence rating as to how much everyone thinks it will sell in a certain sales bracket ... 



Labo comes out tomorrow here in Australia. (And in Europe/Japan)
