It will smash some expectations for sure. But some people had very high expectations.
If the shipment number is true, then i feel it can sold below that 1 million there.
Thats what i am thinking when that deal happen actually lol. Usually if u give a game for free, if it is not for selling the console more to build fanbase like Bloodborne, then the game simply bomba and it is better to put it in bundle to improve the console value.
I had among the highest ones, I am still expecting mine to be smashed :P
I wasn't expecting such a conservative shipment number! Not that it matters since people can buy digital or purchase the game when the next shipment arrives.
I think the game will be much bigger than expectations FW,will it prove that its legs are great?We will see about that
you could pretend to be a teenager though :P
Without immediate digital numbers or PR, we're gonna get a lot of hot takes if the game is lower
I mean, if it is near 1 million, which it sounds like it probably would be even with those shipment numbers, wouldn't it still be among the good results people predicted?
Add on indeterminate supply constraints and digital ratio and the picture looks good.
I think it'd be bad relative to the hype if it sold significantly less than a million FW. Say 700k or something. I don't think that's happening.

Regarding extra shipments, that Yodobashi pic from Silpheed's report mentions "to be restocked today at an undetermined time", so presumably some locations are getting 2nd shipments same day. That's what it reads like anyway.

Yeah, several stores announced restocks today but too tomorrow or Sunday, not many stores for now.

Cacpcom always had that nepotism factor on never take any chances that can ruin Tsujimoto Jr resumee lol.
Not so much.
When it was on 3DS it was, not as popular as some other games, but I knew quite a few females that would play 4.
You can only over ship so many times before stores start to question their purchase orders.

To be expected, we're going to see the limits of the core MH audience.

2 months ago people were doubting my stance that mh:w would sell 3m+ in the west
how fast the hype changes

Capcom aren't the ones who have the final word regarding their shipment numbers and retailers are fed up of taking the hit after so many overshipped titles (and a fair amount of Capcom's games amongst them)
Back to real numbers for MHW soon enough which is good, though with OOS problems we will still have to wait for digital numbers and that's... one more month.
Regarding Xenoblade 2 it has a lower digital ratio than X, the incentive of going digital is not as strong it's not surprising.
I'm a bit surprised about the comments on Tokyo's wheather, it's cold at night but at 9AM in the morning it's already close to 0 and the afternoon it goes up to 6-7°
Most of the snow has melted by know as well, sure you're not gonna take a random walk in the street in the morning or at night, but if you have something you have/want to do it's perfectly fine... it's Winter in the end (and Hokkaido people must laugh their ass off at us :p)

Anyone go to the World Hobby Fair? Snack World Switch is seemingly there:
But there's no footage.

Yeah, I forgot that in Japan retailers are the ones that decide how much they take in. 1m shipment makes a bit more sense in that context given Capcom's history, lol.
they'll probably ship that much for launch going by the hype, just as they're shipping 1m fw for japan
I don't see what changed between then and now to make that any more likely.
Uhh...I highly doubt they're shipping 3m at launch for MHW in the west. They should be happy if that's the lifetime number.
Has that changed?
I mean it might. I never made a mhw prediction personally. But I can see 3m in the west.
PC will do well.
But Xbox? Man I don't know. I'm pretty down on Xbox for Japanese games.
What are we expecting? Can Xbox hit 500k WW? I doubt it. 300k?
MHW's effect is weird sometimes :p
Ain't nothing weird about twintails. If everybody had them the world would be a better place.
no doubt about that. but how long it will take them to sell through that will be important.
