Well, all i can say is, Splatoon in June 2015 sold 290,000 unit including digital, and was above Minecraft...
Usually Splatoon sales are 15-20% digital, so, Splatoon PROBABILY sold some like 230k-250k withouth digital... Minecraft sold less than Splatoon in June 2015. And June is usually a bigger month than July or August... now, here the point.
After Minecraft, there is Gears of War... after Gears of War, there is GTA... after GTA, there is Lego... after Lego, there is Rare... and only after Rare, there is Until Dawn...
imo, there is no way for Until dawn over Heavy Rain considering it sold 219,000...

Keep in mind Halo 5 will only have 3 days of tracking time next month while the Uncharted Collection will have the majority of the month.

No. He is not online.
What makes you think the numbers required to settle that bet will be available?
PS4 install base can work for Uncharted 4 outsell Halo 5 WW, in US is virtually impossible.
Halo it's on another league in USA, a little bigger PS4 install base will not change that because Halo 5 attach rate will be huge.
Halo 5 will sell more in those 3 days, by a lot.
Halo 5's first day will be bigger than Uncharted collection's LTD sales in the US. remaster collections are lucky to debut over 200-300k.
Nothing. Just hoping that Cream comes through with the numbers. A lot of people will want to compare sells of those two games.

Whatever happened to this cosmic?

I seem to recall you saying that PlayStation 4 would fail to have an install base higher than 30 million by December 31st 2015.
You wanna do the bet?
Let's dance. What's on the line?
5 days, but just need 1/5 of pre-orders to evaporate Unchated Collection.

Yeah that's for sure, just in case someone didn't realize this.

Probably like 1M-1.5M. 2M is asking at least 33% or more of the install base to own Splatoon imo considering we're only @ 4M for Wii U in the US thus far.I never said Splatoon would sell better in the US than in Japan.
I think USA sales are really good, and Japan sales are insane.
That said, i think Splatoon will sell around 2 million lifetime in the US ( including digital )...
What's your prediction?
Yes it did worldwide.
Thanks for the detailed information as always
.That's an insane debut for Brawl...

US maybe, but are you talking worldwide? because considering how much stronger the playstation brand is being pushed with the success of the Ps4 and uncharted basically being playstation's halo, I can definitely see it selling much better than the series has in the past.

Uncharted 4 probably will sell more in first month WW but we are talking about Halo 5 vs Nathan Drake Collection, a port of 3 PS3 games. Don't think there will be any contest in October.
Nintendo said that 3DS is up 30% this year. According to my math 3DS sold ~75k in august, maybe you can work with your data to see if there's a match.
US. Worldwide Uncharted 4 has a shot for win, but it's not Playstation Halo (This is Gran Turismo)

I think it has been established Uncharted 4 will sell better worldwide. Whether Halo 5 will >>>> UC4 in the U.S. is the debate.
It is getting close. Uncharted 4 and The Last Of Us 2 will both do 10 million+. Everything ND touches is gold now.

Just 30%? I get <80k, but I don't want to say a specific number as I could be off by a couple of K.
That's just silly.
I actually think the debate is between Halo 5 and Uncharted: Collection, not 4.
Yeah, it seems that 3DS had a terrible month.
Not sure why really.

He clearly means that Uncharted 4 on PS4 will outsell Halo 5 on PS4, since that's the only way his sentence works =P. Fact is, it's honestly possible that in the end Halo:MCC & Uncharted 4 sell similarly.

I asked for clarification and it was both games.
Combined? lol...
But yeah like Loudninja said... not sure why you would make a bet on the Collection vs. Halo 5 disparity... it's going to be lopsided no matter what.
Did I miss something???
No way for Splatoon sell only 1 million lifetime, and even 1.5 million is very low.
The game has legs, STRONG legs. 2 million is what probabily will sell.
And was a insane sistem seller, the Wii sold over 700k the month of Smash Bros.

word. I wonder what the hardware numbers will be, though.
sony/poly dropped the ball really fuckin hard with gt6. and with that I think the series may've lost a lot of momentum. either way, even if gt7 was announced way before & everything, like around the same time as Uc4 and was set up for a release next year, I think the hype for Uc4 would still've been even stronger.
has that been established? i don't know how popular halo is outside of the U.S but i've heard around here that it isn't really a juggernaut anywhere else, I suppose maybe the U.K too.
not only is it getting close...i think it's happened already. uncharted is playstation's biggest franchise. their halo. in fact, besides gt, has there ever been a sony 1st party that's sold over 10 million copies?

It hasn't been announced if that is what you meant. It's a foregone conclusion though. Druckmann said he envisioned the first game as an origin story.

For the November 2014 Xbox One, MCC was as big as Uncharted 4 to PS4, in fact arguably MCC was THE exclusive for Xbox One in the entirety of 2014, even more so than Titanfall.
That's kinda disappointing with TV deal, Madden and Gears. I was expecting a bigger increase over july.

Uncharted 4 will outsell halo 5 in US.
That is not unreasonable.
Uncharted 4 has better coverage at trade-shows, and is getting a beta with the Uncharted collection that will probably make a lot of people preorder the game.
Add in their marketing will be "From the creators who brought you the masterpiece The Last of Us comes...."
Halo is halo. It has a big following, but one I will say has waned over the past couple years. Uncharted or should I say Naughty Dog have become a bigger name.
Uncharted 4 has been hyped since 2013. Halo 5 has had some bad press, because of coverage issues, and bad demoing at trade shows.
Really think Uncharted 4 because of the bigger install base, will make give it an edge to get better sales in US.

No price on Star Wars bundle makes me think there is good possibility for one.

Halo MCC wins because of multiplayer which UCollection does not, do you think Halo MCC will sell great without multiplayer ?

Halo 5's general press coverage and trade show demo impressions have been very positive, it also had a successful beta that gained a lot of good impressions.
