It may or not be a system seller. The mains problems that this game might have is that :
1. You have no idea what this game is about if you didn't heard about it before
2. Even for those that know, there is a confusion as to what is the real goal of the game
3. That game isn't interesting without online
4. The main demographic of the console isn't necessarily in this kind of games.
5. The sackboys are brilliant

If they want the game to be a success, they need to do a lot of marketing. Ads that explain what the game is about could make up for 1,2 and 4.

 

other than that i agree with the post. If they could show advertisments explaining the concept idea+ just some cool trailers. I think the game would sell really well. With good reviews and stuff the game will also have long legs.

Sackboys could cause alot of sales to children imo

So how many children will go to their parents asking them to buy a $400-$500 console?

Yeah...personally I think this game will appeal mostly to owners who already have a PS3. And then again some people may not know about it (my friends who own a PS3 don't) or just won't care about it because it's "kiddy."

What does a child care of money?

Hopefully they are right.  I've yet to see one of these genre of games end up popular so it'd be nice if this was the one.  The only annoying part will be sitting through a bunch of people thinking it was new.

Like when Carlos Santana won that award had the one hit song, and everyone treated him like he hadn't been playing music forever.
