Really? That's below the Wii version...

And the rest-It's been said to have sold over 650,000WW in Guiness World Records 2010 (up to 31stMarch 2010), indicating it's well undertracked on Vgchartz...

Wasn't the Guiness record for PS2 and Wii version combined ?

thats what i thought.



No. Although it would be sweet if it did, the game deserves it, imo.

Also, never say never, especially when it comes to games on Nintendo systems, I guess...

I don't think it will. The game style is niche as is the art style. It's a piece of art for sure, but art doesn't always sell. If anything Art is usually a sign of an upstream consumer that usually suffers lack of downstream sales.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

It should sell over a million. The PS2 version was a niche title dat had 2 compete with God of War 2,Resident Evil 4,DMC3 Special Ed,etc. The wii version should have been a wii launch title, not a 2 year old prot. And the DS audience are more receptive to niche games/interesting art styles than most other audiences.

It won't sell a million. But millions of people will play it illegally.

Capcom should really put these projects on XBLA and PSN.

No, I'm fairly certain it's the Wii version, hence it's under "Wii"

Yet another Troll who says ludicrous things like these...

 

a) Why should they? It'll cost more so it'll fall harder

b) It probably won't get as many sales

c) even discounting A and B, why shouldn't they release it retail? What incentive is there for a Wii/DS game to warrant only a DLC pricetag? 

 

Face it, it'd be commercial suicide. Plus it's on the DS. Buy a DS and play it if you want to, so stop dreaming
