The Conduit is it even worth the hype and wait?

WW2 even how tiring it is was still popular, if not COD WAW wouldnt be a million seller on both consoles in its 1st week.

The real question is... is MOH: H2 only sold 500,000 so far wasnt because Wii owners dont like PSP port but because FPS arent popular genre on the Wii to begin with? COD WAW wasnt a PS2 port like COD 3 did and yet it didnt sell well. And most Wii owners dont hang out on sites like these and believe in reviews. So how come? COD WAW was much better than MOH: H2

And as for The Conduit, Im only a wii owner too and I want a good fps game on the wii, but doesnt mean Im willing to wait for weeks or even months just to play a decent FPS game with online even there are other games I can play with. If we really want a good FPS game then play the ones that we have like COD WAW, Red Steel, MOH: H2, QoS, COD 3, etc... than just wait and wait.

Im not really picky with my choice of games as long as it plays decent like other Wii owners too.

I think I'll conclude my posts right now, I have nothing more to say.

Call of Duty World at War's fantastic sales are because it's the hotly anticipated sequel to Call of Duty 4, a game that removed itself from World War 2 and because of a series of gameplay decisions transcended it's predecessors in the COD series. Of course, the COD 5 anticpating crowd played COD 4 on the 360 and PS3.  The last COD on the Wii was 3, a launch game that got mixed reviews and outsold the PS3 version in America.

But of course we're talking about COD 5 sales after only a week or two, and I know that you yourself like to point out how Wii games don't have the front loaded sales of the other consoles. Don't you have a thread that talks about COD 5 Wii, Quantom of Solace and Nerf N Strike? So far COD WAW is selling better than MoH: H2. 

So then on to MOH:2. The first thing I notice is that you change tactics and start to talk about why the game didn't sell more. Is this a sales discussion or a quality discussion? If the whole point of this thread all along has been that you don't think the Conduit will sell well, then that's an entirely different argument. Looking at the two games side by side, I see one spin off sequel standard WW2 shooter with mediocre graphics and online play that is lacking voice chat and one original IP with strong graphics, interesting gameplay ideas and voice chat multiplayer. There are plenty of reasons why the Conduit would attract more attention to itself than MoH: 2 heroes.

You then say

If we really want a good FPS game then play the ones that we have like COD WAW, Red Steel, MOH: H2, QoS, COD 3, etc... than just wait and wait. 

Being in the same genre doesn't mean they're the same thing. Why wait for Killzone 2 when you can go out and get Fracture right now?

People are waiting for this game because they want to play this game. Because it looks like a good game, and most of the games in this genre so far for Wii haven't been very good games.
