Because the wii only has one good game right?

Anyway, the conduit had a good opening week in America, so why complain?

What numbers have been reported? I aint seen anything yet

It's running out of people to buy it.  I mean over 50 million people have bought it around three years.

Another wii is doomed thread

Not doomed Leo just getting a reality check as far as sales go.

 

I am sorry for "derailing" your thread, but look you are not going to get a descent discussion about declining wii sales on vgchartz. Its never happened



 

mM

well it not doomed,

but it's clear demographic wise wii isn't really a "harcore" console, maybe hardcore nintendo.

but for third party it doesn't sound as big money making unless they throw games like EA fit or wii fit or what ever that's called.

Can we see some sales for the Conduit before it's deemed to be a failure or a success?

They wont affect Wii sales, plus overall The Conduit is at ~75 overall so far.

If the game flops in sales... it will be another nail in the "core games" coffin.

The Conduit was the 7th nail. Monster Hunter 3 will be the 8th and final one.

Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

For me having a diversity of Reviews (The conduit had 9s and 4s) is much better than a Unanimous clap, because those Big Games with big Reviews usually represents the Interest on a Franchise or game more than the product itself . (and yes my bloody GTA IV copy is gattering dust for months and RE 5 is doing the same)

An article at Vgchartz said 100000+ copies sold and more online traffic then mario kart wii and super smash bros brawl. Gamespy was impressed, so they said.

You seriously think MH3 will flop?
