Evil within and shadow of mordor numbers are making me sad.
Skyward Sword had about 500k preorders and sold just under 2 million. Hyrule Warriors will benefit from being earlier in the lifecylce of its system, but still, 2 million seems excessive.

So Cod AW on PS4 only got 1k more preorders than Batman: Arkham Knight, even though Batman doesn't release in like 9 months?
