Deus Ex Human Revolution :Director's Cut bombed like everyone expected overall but mainly on PS3 and 360

On WiiU's top 10 best sellers in UK Deus Ex came at number 4 the dropped to number 9 the following Week

On both PS3's top 30 Full Price best sellers and budget best sellers Deus Ex didn't show up, it only had 4 new games to compete with and couldn't show up at all in the Full-Price or the Budget Best sellers

On both 360's top 40 Full Price best sellers and budget best sellers Deus Ex didn't show up, it only had 5 new games to compete with and couldn't show up at all in the Full-Price or the Budget Best sellers

As a note Deus Ex was priced at 24.99 on both PS3 and 360 and at 29.99 on WiiU

In the USA the pricing is far different being 29.99 on PS3 and 360 and 49.99 on WiiU so the same situation didn't happed

It flopped all around but by WiiU measures it did okay, personally i think SE shouldn't have made it at all or at least chose a different release date for the game, anyway even on WiiU people who wanted the game bought it on the first two days

if you looked at the games outselling it you'll see Black Ops, MW2, AC Brother Hood and so on so i thought that it had a very terrible performance even worse than expected

Anyway i added a poll tell me what you think, also since Windwaker as NO.1 did 1.7K i think that Deus Ex did 800-1000 units sold and about 500-800 on PS3 and 360

I'm tired of explaining myself so i changed the title.

bet with ash3336 he wins if Super Mario 3D World sells less than Mario Sunshine during the first three years, I win if 3D World outsells Sunshine's first 3 years. Loser get sig controlled for 3 months (punishment might change)

Do you doubt the WiiU? Do you believe that it won't match the GC?

Then come and accept this bet

so it didn't flop on the wiiu?



must-have-list for platforms i don't own yet:

WiiU: Donkey Kong

XBone: Dead Rising 3, Ryse

Probably because it's been out on the PS3 and 360 for years.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

number of units is more important considering Wii u software sale are small in general



 

 

Most people probably just downloaded it.



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords

Why buy this game when everyone already played it on PS3 & 360 years ago?



Reaching



The fact that Wii-U's bestsellers list is only a top 10 should tell you everything you need to know about why the assumption in this thread is incredibly flawed.



for those who did not get the purpose off the thread it is just showing that SE didn't do the best decision
adding a poll right now

Everybody already bought this game in PS3 and Xbox360, so how do you expect them to buy this again. Wii U is getting this for first time and also users expecting some games in Wii U so they are going to give it a try and I won't expect this game did great in Wii U.



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.
