NPD Sales Results for February 2016 [Up1: Fire Emblem]

Steam is at about 130k. I'd say its probably 500k at best with all Digital sales included. Really dont see it hitting that 2million mark.

It's 500 k just from Europe and US imo counting digital, WW i'd say it will be 1 million soon, I could be nuts though and totally out to lunch..

Pokken is a system seller to me.

The amount of money Nintendo could print by making a Pokemon RPG for Wii U/NX is insane.

more than the 10-15million sales they made on the 3DS (or any handheld) with a fraction of the dev costs??


There aren't even 15 million Wii Us...
 
Could Pokken outsell SFV?

Considering the demographics that own WiiUs and their engagement with Nintendo IP, id consider it to be a certainty.

I would even argue that Pokken might be the second best selling fighter this gen, after MKX.

Really the only thing stopping it is whether it gets a launch day NX port or not.

Smash Bros. though.

Xbox 360 didn't take off until the Kinect launched Holiday 2010. It's February at the same period in its life cycle for example was 250,000.

THe 360 was regularly up YoY whereas the XB1 is now regularly significantly down YoY and wasnt that far ahead of the 360 to begin with. It will fall below 360 sales long before we see the kinect bump.

I mean in terms of selling hardware.

I have many friends who have completely lost touch with Nintendo but would line up in the cold at midnight if NX had such a title.

Yeah, it could be an attraction to bolster a lineup.
I just don't see TPC putting their main team on it, when they could be making another handheld entry.

The best you'd get would be a lower budget, condensed RPG, made by an off-team like genius sonority. Made just well enough to sell a million or even two. Would the masses be satisfied with that? Hm, dunno. GAF definitely wouldn't

Wish we could make a thread to discuss SFV franchise sales decline. I think theres a discussion to be had there about cause and effect.
