Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Punchout gets a A+ from 1up, Will it outsell Killzone 2 in its first week?

Aren't these two games a tad different in demographics? How are they remotely comparable?

Ok fine, to your question, Punch-Out!!! may end up with 2-3mill sales Lifetime, don't shoot me (IT'S POSSIBLE). Judging from Killzone 2, I may have to, at some point, bring my prediction down for it. I don't know, we'll see how the rest of the year pans out.

 

There is no way a Nintendo D list franchise will sell over a million.

All I know is that Nintendo games have very very long legs. You cant tell a Nintendo games sales by its first week sales.



Thats a terrible comparison.....

Punch Out!! will easily outsell KZ2 over time but not in the first week.

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

Big Brain Academy 6 mil/ Wii ver. 3 mil

Flash Focus 3.58

Kung Fu 3.41

Killer Instinct 3.1

Alleyway 1.94

Kid Icarus 1.76

Kirby's Adventure 1.75

Golden Sun 1.67

Pikmin 1.63

There's sooooo many more. Nintendo has had 242 million+ sellers.  Not all are Mario and Pokemon

http://vgchartz.com/games/index.php?page=1&results=50&name=&console=&keyword=&publisher=245&genre=&order=Sales&boxart=Both&showdeleted=&region=All&alphasort=

Edit: It's not going to sell 1.5 million week 1.  It will have legs of steel though.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

I would be surprised if Punch Out sold 1.5 million in the first week let alone the first month. It will probably have decent legs and sell well enough but its not going to be the next Mario Kart Wii or Wii Fit in terms of sales. It's on my radar but I probably won't buy the game until around Xmas time.



Certainly not but it should sell more than one million in Americas when all is said and done.
