It will have a bit of an uphill struggle.
The misguided few who sold their Wiis in disgust or never got one in protest will feel the need to trash the game - probably without ever playing it.
The journalists who have a vested interest in pretending the Wii either has failed, or will fail, the hardcore will have a marvellous time scoffing and will at best criticise the graphics for being non-HD.
But nevertheless it will sell. There are plenty of us who want to give it a go and plenty others who might be tempted.
Given the expected rash of negative criticism I don't expect it to sellmassively in the first few weeks.
Which will of course spawn another rash of 'Wii isn't for hardcore' posts.
But after that, and if it and the studio survives, it will sell steadily and matbe tempt others in.
If, that is, it is any good. But it will be hard to tell that from the early reviews.
