Predict Z-A’s sales.
>>58414991Lower than Time Stranger.
>>5841499115.000.000 at best 13.000.000 at least
Higher than PLA (because of the wait and people wanting something to play on their Switch 2). But probably less than SV or SwSh
>>5841499115 million copies minimum guaranteed.
You can pirate it so 12 mil unless people are actually fucking stupid.
>>58415019>>58415132Probably true. Being a single version means they can't magically double their sales like usual, so half the usual amount seems right.
>>58415165>they can't magically double their sales like usualThat isn't how it works.
>>58415180If you break SV's sales in half, it's about 15 mil per. Are you telling me the game would have sold as much as one game? My logic may be somewhat retarded but I feel like there's something there.
>>58415002LmMAOooo hahahahaha hahahhahhaha!!!!
>>58415180>The two version format does not get them more salesThen why do they keep doing it?
>>58415195double version probably get them 10% more sales at best. Do you really think that many people are buying both versions?? it's usually either one or the other.
>>58415213Tradition, just like how they keep giving starters a 87.5% male ratio, or limiting a line to only being able to evolve twice, or having a starter trio comprised of Grass, Fire and Water.
>>58415195>Are you telling me the game would have sold as much as one game?No. However, your logic is flawed because in order to halve or double, you're assuming that every person who bought SV bought both versions. If thats what you genuinely think, then you're retarded. A small portion (retards) do buy both versions, which adds to sales, but its nowhere even remotely close to what you're suggesting.
>>58415223it outright said in the teraleak they were going to make legends johto two versions to boost sales
>>58415213>>The two version format does not get them more salesNo one said that retard. It slightly increases sales, but it does not double sales. This is the cope that PLA fags tried to use to justify its low sales.
>>58415208Yeah funny right! I can't believe digimon might outsell pokeslop for the first time! haha!
>>58415237Uh-huh, and now we're seeing even more single-version games, including one that intends to bring back the "every copy has a unique seed" concept from way back in Gen 1 that was proposed before Miyamoto suggested the simpler option of two versions.
Between 10 to 15 Million. That's the Pokémon Audience.
>>58415259This you?
+No new pokemon game in 3 years (35 months)+GF consistently delivering technically bad-mediocre games yet still selling huge volumes; casual/parent/conditioned audience+3rd major switch 2 exclusive(-ish) title available so owners have little else to buy+Hype+Pokemon+Nintendo copyrighting the whole Pokemon concept, giving them a real legal monopoly.-The economy-Switch 2 sales "only" in the millions (luckily its cross-gen)PLA sold 15 millionI'll say 17 million for PLZA
>>58414991Between 25-35 million, perhaps higher, there's lots of hype, I'm getting switch 2 version myself
>>5841499115 million for switch 110 million for switch 2another 5 - 10 million for the switch 2 owners who buy the switch 1 version cause it's the last game you'll be able to inject in.
>>58414991if its anything above 13 mill pokemon games deserve to be terrible
Guessing 10 million, but could see it going up to 12 or 13 million due to the longer wait and extra Switch 2 hype. Still really good, especially for the low budget. Just not expecting anything on the level of SWSH, SV, or likely WW next year. Legends Arceus felt like a true game changer and still topped around 15 million. I'd be surprised if this game beats it.
$2
>>58414991bout tree fiddy.
if let's go made it to 12mln then legends game with xenoblade battle mechanic will make 15mln max or even surpass it if xenoblade fans will hop in, but doubt it, digimon is always going to be a joke, they literally made good game but battle mechanic and monster collecting is still garbage and autism
but I tell you something cruel...I realized I'm forcing myself to not buy this game this month, while I don't give a shit about digimon even if I love them
>>58414991Less than 20 mln but still better than PLA, BDSPiss and LGPE
>>584149918 million>>58416768LGPE had the benefit of being the first switch pokemon game proper and sales still flatlined after a while.
>>58415153You could pirate SV and it was still a huge commercial success, retard
>>5841499120,000,000
>>5841499110 million copies sold in first 3 days30 million in a week50 million tops
>>58414991What was his problem?
>>58414991What’s his line up?
>>58414991It will sell more than zero copies, so it will sell more than it deserves.
>>584149916 million
>>58418028Being a Muslim/communist rich kid.
>>58415443All good points. Being cross-gen is really what's gonna boost sales, imo. Not only does the game have access to the massive Switch 1 base, but also the hot, new Switch 2. Plus, we're coming up on the holiday season. I'm thinking first week sales will be anywhere between 3 to 4 million, and by the end of the year, 9 to 10 million, and by the end of next year, somewhere near 18-20 million. The thing that might throw off the numbers a little is the Z-A Switch 2 bundle that replaces the Mario Kart holiday bundle. Z-A could actually do even bigger numbers than is reflected in the sales charts because instead of people buying individual copies, they're buying the bundle.
I'm thinking about the DLC. This game looks so short-lived without, GF must bank on its sales more than usual.
idk why you care about sales, good or bad you are getting shit games forever, dont buy merchandise or tcg
Why are people assuming this will do better than PLA?We aren't in Covid era anymore
>>58420800>pla>covi
>>58420800Pokemon doesn't need a pandemic to sell.
>>58414991Hassansissies.....
>>58420800PLAp sales aren't anything impressive, they did worse than a ripoff made in it's own weave and a sabotaged ILCA remake.
>>58414991I'd say about 30% more than PLA unless something goes very wrong or very right
>>58414991It's being sold as a console bundle and cross platform so anywhere from 20-35 mil.
>>58414991>picrelforced meme
>>58414991Is it etical to use shock collars to train your pokemon?
