@jammy: Didn't Sega say that they were going to promote the title? Conduit is getting quite a lot of hype, which is promoting the game. As for the hype, the question is whether it will deliver or not. Redsteel would have sold more, if it had delivered.
Resident Evil has the RE franchise, but RE4 was owned by over 3 million people on GC and PS2 and a number of people on PC. RE4 performed extremely well considering it's a port of a game that everyone who wants one already has it. REUC as a rail shooter is more of a niche title.
CoD is a gimped down port with a lot of stuff missing, when all the multiplatform owners got it on other consoles.
Conduit doesn't have any of the qualities i mentioned; it's exclusive, so if the multiplatform owners want the game, they can get it only for Wii. It's also a new title, when you can't already own it on another platform. Conduit also has online multiplayer, supports Wii Speak and Wii Motion Plus, so it even offers something new.
Look, the audience is there, the hype is there, the game has something new to offer, but what's missing, is the competition. If it lives up to expectations, it has the winning formula.
Ei Kiinasti.
Eikä Japanisti.
Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.
Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.
