What the....? Did they kill your dog or something? What was so bad about that article?

Ceric · « **Reply #9576 on:** August 23, 2014, 06:37:49 AM »

We already saw compared to past entries in the series and its doing well for that. Sold versus shipped percentage we rarely see but, 57% doesn't sound overly bad. It just mean they shipped enough to hold the initial demand then then maintain a shelf presence without a restock.

Tecmo overshipped a Musou game? NO WAY! THAT NEVER HAPPENS!

By the way, I was being sarcastic.

If they shipped 150,000 copies and and sold just about 78,000 in 3days no less, is it not reasonable to assume they would want a few extra copies onboard for the following weeks?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #9579 on:** August 23, 2014, 10:42:20 AM »

70,000 copies sold in a few days for a game like that on a platform with as low an install base as Wii U seems pretty solid regardless of how many they shipped.

More like BOMBA AMIRITE HO HO. Japan needs to go third party

Tecmo/Koei is expecting a million sales and if the West makes up the difference on that I'll sleep with your mom.

Stratos · « **Reply #9582 on:** August 23, 2014, 04:13:18 PM »

I can see it passing that on the Zelda name alone. There are probably about 400-500k "core" Nintendo fans who actively buy in the US. Couple those with the sleeper and casual Nintendo fans who will buy on the name (or because there is nothing else new on the system...). Also toss in the Dynasty Warriors fans and we can see the numbers hit 1 Million world wide for Hyrule Warriors. Don't forget Europe and etc.

Nile Boogie Returns · « **Reply #9583 on:** August 23, 2014, 04:24:45 PM »

Selling a million isn't that far off. The us will double what ever Japan sells and EU make up the difference. That's 900k at least.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #9584 on:** August 23, 2014, 05:51:43 PM »

Ain't gonna happen cap'n. Wii U has two million sellers. TWO. Zelda typically doesn't even sell that well, and Dynasty Zelda won't either.

Nile Boogie Returns · « **Reply #9585 on:** August 23, 2014, 06:36:33 PM »

WiiU has more than 2, million sellers worldwide. Mk8, NSMBU, Wind Waker HD and Nintendo Land all above 1mil.

Stratos · « **Reply #9586 on:** August 23, 2014, 06:46:51 PM »

With the exception of Four Swords Adventures on the Gamecube, all Zelda titles have broken a million. Hell, you want to look at "spin-offs" Crossbow Training sold 4.8 million.

And also Super Mario 3D World, Wii Party U, and New Super Luigi U.

I think Hyrule Warriors could eventually break a million worldwide when all is said and done, but it might take a sale/price cut for it to happen.

on Wii.

Maybe 500k, and that's a stretch.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #9589 on:** August 23, 2014, 08:41:21 PM »

Sorry, I meant domestically. Should have been more clear. NSMBU and MK8, that's it. Skyward Sword sold 3.77 million, out of 100 million consoles, and it was a real Zelda game. Don't forget Link's Crossbow Training was a free game that came with a $20 accessory.

What does domestic have to do with Hyrule Warriors selling 1 million worldwide? The number KT has projected were worldwide numbers, not just US.
I think there's a good chance it'll go over 1 million. 200k in Japan, 400k in Europe and 400k in the Americas.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #9591 on:** August 27, 2014, 04:45:14 PM »

I doubt it will do anywhere near that well in the US. I'm not buying it, for one, and I've bought nearly every console Zelda game.

That's extremely optimistic considering a game like DKC Tropical Freeze only hit 285k in it's first 5 months in the US, and I consider that to be more of an evergreen title with future sales potential than Hyrule Warriors. We'll see.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #9593 on:** August 27, 2014, 05:14:42 PM »

If Brandogg isn't buying it then I don't see how it'd be possible for it to hit a million.

Zelda is a more popular character in the US than Donkey or Diddy Kong. From what I've heard, there are people that are buying the system just for Hyrule Warriors. I don't think it's extremely optimistic. Extremely optimistic would be 1 million sales in the US alone.

Why wouldn't it be? Brandogg is the most serious poster that has ever posted at NWR.

I wonder if Mario Kart 8 sales will be affected by the update and DLC announcements.

Poll

Will Nintendo pull off another 30 for 30 in Japan sales this year and, if so, how many times?
