A demo of Zelda U will be included with every copy of Hyrule Warriors. Believe.
Still can't believe this is actually happening…
The Zelda brand has insane potential and it could be used for so many amazing things.
Whoring the brand for reskined games based on garbage-tier franchises is just sad.

Never bought a dw game before but I'll be buying this. I assume it's people like me tecmo are basing this on.

Wait, the 1.12 million number didn't include the bundle?Wind Waker HD sold a million copies, and that's not counting the Wii U hardware bundle. Certainly feasible, I think.
Personally, I know lots of casual gamer friends who were super wowed by the Hyrule Warriors trailer.
Yeah, Nintendo should fund that game...I still don't think Zelda Musou was a good idea. It could have been sold over 1 million if the game was Game of Thrones Musou and was on PS4/Xbox One.
On WiiU. Mosou crossover/spinoff. Not referencing Zelda in English title.
Lots of strikes against it.

Isn't there only like 4 million Wii Us sold total?

Reads like a troll post but is exactly how I feel.
Is Nintendo really funding the game? Yes it's a second party game but Nintendo might only be providing license and publishing. I don't think Koei needs any money to develop this game, this isn't a Bayo 2 situation. Nintendo published many Musou games in the past without funding them. I believe it's Koei who decided to use LoZ setting.
Sounds like a personal problem.It'll only sell that high because of desperation on the part of Wii U owners. I haven't touched the thing since beating Super Mario 3D World and won't have a reason to for the foreseeable future.

Aiming = expects?
Anything on the Gundam Musou series?
Not going to happen.
A million is ambitious. Zelda fans like Zelda games and this isn't a Zelda game, it's a Musou game with a Zelda skin. Musou fans might buy it if it's really good, but they don't own Wii U's, and they have plenty of real Musous to keep them busy on the Playstation.
Other hurdles include the footage they've released so far -- which was hot garbage -- and the likely lack of marketing. I just don't see this selling better than something like WWHD.
Yea. Sad right?
Link to source?
DW7 selling 500k in the West is surprising.
How would selling a million copies make it the second best selling game?
300k in the US is what the poster is talking about.
Games that have sold 300k+ in the US on WiiU:
SM3D world
WWHD (bundled)
Its definitely not going to do 300k in JP. Skyward Sword just about sold 300k and Warriors O3 did like 30k.
EU is WiiU's weakest market so its not going to make up sales there either.
I find it kinda hard to believe without sources that NSMBU and Nintendo Land haven't sold that many.
