I'll give you that. I stand corrected.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

These numbers are far from impressive considering the size of the userbase.

 

That means every other PS2 million seller cannot impress you, especially those made in the last few years. I hope you think God Of War 1 & 2 are far from impressive.

Or else you can admit attach rate is a bullshit measurement, used as a spin machine.

 

How am I supposed to be impressed when the 360 version sells 5 million copies with a much smaller userbase?

Because the Wii has a more diverse fan base. Not just a bunch of people buying the same thing.

Be impressed that the Wii software sales overall are whipping the 360. Cooking Mama wouldn't sell squat on the 360.

*How many time takes to Activision release official videos and promotion for Wii version? just two weeks before release, against months of promotional material for PS360.
*How much invested Activision on Wii version promotional campaing? too muuch less than PS360.
*Wii version has Zombie mode?: No, and isn´t impossible added in the final release, Activision just want cut cost on Wii and don´t make it a dual layer game.
*how much players have COD WaW for Wii for online gaming? just 8, and just use as example not the PCS360 versions, take as comparative Medal of Honor Heroes 2, that old game works for 32 simultaneous online players, without lag. ¿why Activision don´t give the same support for COD WaW on Wii than EA for MoH H2?

If we see this wekakness of Wii version (nothing related to graphics) it´s just a miracle the actual state of sales.

Yes the sales of Cod Wii are enormous despite it is a cut version of the hd version. I think an exclusive and technically superious shooter like The Conduit will sale 2 millions at least.

What I know about this game is that I could never find stock in the UK in local stores. The number of shipped units was very very reduced compared to other versions, so it's normal it sells less.

About The Conduit... it will sell less than CoD... new IP ;)

@shanobi: Cooking Mama shouldn't sell squat anywhere, not just the 360.



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

Did any multiplatform game sell less on PS2 than GC or Xbox?

The market will only grow and the reason this game hit 1 million is because it's good!

Activision may one day have their best selling Callofduty on Wii but they have to keep this moentum by releasing COD6 on wii too!

1 million sold is still a big number whatever say the haters and Actisvision must be quietly surprised!

yop i agreed that wii version codwaw xas inferior to HD version

and if wii version should have the same mumber of modes, the same number of player on online could easy make 2 million

why 1 million? people train for the conduit and was good on wii

activision say the will support more the wii, cod5 waw wii does supass the exprtaction of activision

no ad, rude concurence of the hd fps cleary the single way is that wii have some fps players
