What's wrong kiddo? Someone steal your lunch money? Proactive not clearing your face up?

Go away. Please. The Earth doesn't need you. Oh...and no.

Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

You won't get rid of me that easily....my work is not done until I have gotten rid of every prepubescent internet fire starter that is out there hiding behind their keyboard. See that the Earth technically does need me.
Currently playing: AC 3, ZombiU, BLOPS 2, Nintendoland, NSMBU, Nano Assault Neo, Halo 4, Darksiders 2, and Far Cry 3

Oh dear. I'm going through puberty now.

Oh yeah, and I'm the Doctor, of course Earth needs me.

And how old are you, may I ask?

Throwing my two cents into the well...

Sleeper Hit: NintendoLand or Wonderful 101

Bust: ZombiU. I honestly hate saying this since the game looks fantastic, but I have this feeling that it's not going to do so well. If anything else, Ninja Gaiden: Razor's Edge.

Sleeper hit: ...Nintendo Land ?
Bust of the launch: Zombi U, either the hype will kill it OR it could turn out that they tried to do do many things and it just didn't turn out right

zombiu can't be a sleeper hit because it's the most anticipated wii u game.
Mario can't because it's mario.
nintendoland might count, but it's a pack-in which might disqualify it a little.

hit: Scribllenauts
bomb: Zombiu

I agree.
however I think the hit will be nintendoland and the miss will be zombiu

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

I quite agree with nsmbu being not as well received as expected. At least on western soil. Too soon for me. I'm sure it'll be good though.

No hype needed; it's Rayman.

bust: ninja gaiden: razors edge


This. But zombi u doesn't really classify as a sleeper. They're banking on it.

Sleeper hit: wonderful 101, Zombi U mark my words zombi u will sell minimum 2 million copies

Bust: lots of them depending on what you consider a bust. i just dont see the third party games available since last year selling well. i think batman will suffer the worst sales fate out of the group.

I honestly think ninja gaiden 3: razor's edge will do decently well. A lot of people who tried out the game has stated it's much better than the ps3/360 versions. Batman seems like it will bomb because a lot of people have it already and unlike ninja gaiden it did really well on the other platforms. In addition the wiiu version doesn't seem to have that much improvement over the original.

Sleeper: Zombiu
Bomb: Scribblenauts or Batman

To clarify, A sleeper hit is one no one expects to do well or be fun, but it ends up blowing people away. A bust is exactly the opposite, it is one that people Expect to do well but ends up flopping.

Thank you for clarifying this.

its kind of frustrating to me when people say Zombi U will be a sleeper, when it is the most hyped launch game, And when people say that farming simulator is a bust when everyone expects it to do poorly.
