Have you tried it? It's a pretty good/fun game.

He is a "hardcore" gamer.

It hasn't been released as a physical retail game worldwide yet.

I'm hoping after they see how all their non-gamer games are performing poorly, they'll stop making them and instead make games I would actually play. Selfish I know! xD

Don't worry ,Wii Fit U is going to bomb spectacularly because Nintendo has no idea what market it's in. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Pretty big bomb, though it was to be expected that the Wii series games would tank hard when people started to notice that the Wii U isnt a true successor to what the Wii was

One of their issues with the Wii U in general.

Why would a gamer want any game, no matter how "casual", to flop if it's a decently-made game? It's not like Nintendo is diverting a huge amount of resources into it, and the money that Nintendo makes on it would go into the resources to make games like Mario Galaxy.

And this isn't really a "non-gamer game". If you'd looked into it, you'd learn that it's constructed quite well as a gamer game, so long as you're not looking for gore or adventure.

Uhms, I just answered that question! Asking it again will not change the answer or make you like the answer.

Wow... really guys?

According to VGChartz, this game has sold 20 copies in the US in its first week. BUT in the second weeks sales exploded to over 4000. 4000 is a very impressive figure for a game that didn't release yet...

The game sold 34,000 copies in Japan, despite not releasing until February 1st there. Of course, download cards are tracked by Media Create I think, so maybe that explains that... but then again, I don't think the game ever showed up on either tracker.

Of course, that doesn't explain why the game sold 7000 in EU a week BEFORE it released.

So... clearly the sales data we have for this game is way way off meaning this whole topic is really stupid.
