Heh, heh...looks like we're going to be seeing some new avatars around here. Kirby is definitely taking down Ni No Kuni II.

People thought Ni No Kuni II would outsell Kirby Star Allies? They’re really bold if so.

OT: So Kirby did over 300k as I predicted. Very nice, and it probably did 1m+ FW worldwide too. We shall find out tomorrow.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Well deserved for Far Cry. I finished it yesterday, put off diving deep into God of War to finish it. The ending was incredible. The departure from typical Ubi style gameplay we’ve seen so many games emulate is really what made it fresh enough for me to be able to complete it. I was barely able to stomach a couple hours of FC4/Primal before I tapped out, and even games like Horizon that leaned heavily on Ubi designs grew old. This is only the second open world game I’ve been able to finish this gen, while I completed a ton last gen and even platinumed many on PS3.

Nice to see SoT selling well. Bodes great for SoD2.

No, people said Kirby would sell more while NNK2 would be the better game.

NNK2’s revenue was 60% higher than the first one. That is good news.

So Far Cry 5 outsold 2 months of Monster Hunter in just 1 week?
That’s depressing.

Why?

Can't see AoT2 anywhere. I'm rather surprised it couldn't chart despite being on 3 platforms. Is the IP big in the US or not especially?

Despite ONLY rolling out to XB1 and Windows 10 (aka PC)......

How is that an "only"?
