Pre-sales of LE and add Pro sales (assuming 500) have surpassed IM right out of the shoot.
Prem sales will kick in as Pro owners love it enough to sell and upgrade and those waiting on the fence fall into the buy spree. Yes I do believe one more update will show those that doubt SR will be convinced.

I do believe there are a lot of would be owners waiting on code or the LE to show what it "could" become.
I also believe there will be a second wave of purchases after Christmas. Some people feel guilty about spending so much on a toy for themselves prior to Chirstmas....all bets are off come tax return time lol.

Quoted from frolic:

the last sort of "bomb" was Avengers, and we could tell that game was in trouble early on. the fixes and such the owners took care of was too much to save it.

I believe Avengers was a "build bomb" more than a bomb of a game.
I really like it but the build quality just made you scratch your head and say what was Gomez thinking.
Seemed like he was great with the art work on both PF and Cab (Hulk) but the actual game build design was a "bomb".
Bad outlanes- poor placement of Loki - No lock lit insert - Ball hang (s) even the shooter was not right and to cap it off - build the ramps from plastics ....what the crap was that? Look at Metallica -ACDC or even ST Pro then look at Avengers...man what a mess.
Avengers code wise should be the model of a min-code launch IMO.

BTW looking for an Avengers PRO miss it lol...rant off.
