Great start for Dragon's Crown.
Now, i'll be sitting here watching the fanboys fight over numbers.
Its really magnificent how numbers could cause such mess

PopRocks3593913d ago

Hmm. I have to wonder how Pikmin has done since it released after this estimate was published. Guess we'll have to wait for this week to pass by.

aceitman3913d ago

well in 3 weeks its only sold 173,000 world wide . this week might push it 50,000-100,000 more.which is not good for a 1st party Nintendo game. getting worried now for wii u

chadboban3913d ago

Well it is one of Nintendo's most niche franchises. I mean the other two barely even crossed a million in sales. It's a fantastic game, but seriously NO ONE expected this game to save Wii U on it's own. I'll wait and see what the rest of the year will bring for Wii U. I still think they should scrap the basic and sell the premium for $279 though

PS4isKing_823913d ago

Pikmin was never a huge seller for Nintendo. Wait till smash bros., 3d Mario world, Mario kart 8 and more hit. Those should do some big numbers around Christmas time.

Imalwaysright3913d ago

I'll only be worried if Mario Kart U sells less than 10 million copies.

Whymii3913d ago (Edited 3913d ago )

@imalwaysright
10 million. That's pushing a lot of hardware sales. I'd settle for an attach rate of 50% on existing hardware and a 100% increase in hardware sales in the first 6 months as a result. Those figures would make Reggie ecstatic.

It's a 'B' tier Nintendo exclusive don't expect it to sell like Mario Kart or Zelda ;)

PopRocks3593912d ago

You and the five twits who disagreed with my comment are in serious need of some reading comprehension.

Did I say it was a system seller? No. Do I expect it to be? No. I am just curious about its sales performance as per its release in the US. That's it.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg13h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv7213h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast14h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood14h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK11h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

gold_drake10h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.
