If both were successes, what about the PS3/X360 games that had similar reviews (80%+) that managed to sell millions like Dead Rising, or Saints Row? Could also go with: Madden 09 (360,000) de Blob (200,000) Fifa 09 (190,000) Geometry Wars: Galaxies (70,000) Trauma Center: New Blood (150,000 + PAL) Just for a few of the higher rated 3rd party games in the Wii library that didn't perform too well for sales. |
Well THQ said that De Blob is already a commercial success, game will continue selling without a doubt.
Madden 09 outsold 08 in every week, and it will continue to sell steadily (even with that stupid box art)
Medal of Honor:H2 500 000 copies of PSP bulid game, this is a massive success especially when this franchise has been doing poorly lately.
Developers of Z&W, Boom Blox, NMH and etc. etc. all have stated that those games were profitable and were a financial successes. I just dont get why people still go on about those games not selling, especially considering how Niche NMH and Z&W are.
But i wish that shopes in the UK would stop bundling Wii with Carnival Games, i cant look at it in the charts anymore.
