Or it sells really well and makes Sega a lot of money, and look nearly as good as a 360 FPS game on a SD TV.  Anyways, this discussion is really moot at this point.  Once the game launches, then we can actually get some facts about it's quality and sales data instead of predictions all over the map...

 

 In all of the game sales on the Wii in past 2 years, theres one fact remain; Wii games arent frontloaded even how much you advertised it *cough*COD WAW*cough*

So unless there are other things that the conduit can do for gamers to buy it we glad that it will sell 100,000 in its first week. So if the conduit must sell 1 million to break even then they have to wait 2-6 months to get it.

@voltaire-----> Just an advice if you want to rant dont use the f word and its not f**k Im talking about.

 

they did not start advertising CODwaw until December, when the holiday rush started in earnest.

 also to add, wii games CAN be front loaded *good openings* with some hype, See SSBB, MKWii, SMG, and WiiFit.

I am gonna predict 175k in NA first week and 85k in Others, so 270k ww assuming maybe 10k in Japan, IF!! it get really good reviews (like 92 meta or above) maybe up to 400k WW first week

(the 270k was assuming it get around an 85 meta, if it really sucks, it deserves to bomb)



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut
