It will break 1 million by March or April and go on to sell 2 million at least. The games is starting to the that "buzz" that is required for a Wii game to become a huge hit. I hear people who are not core in the least bit talking about the game.

Maybe they are talking about it because Call of Duty is one of the biggest series on Earth right now? You may also hear people talking about Wii Fit, Halo, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Mario Kart, etc. and not be core gamers. It's called popularity and word of mouth. Someone's girlfriend, or mother, or Uncle, or non-gaming friend may have heard of Call of Duty because there are over 10 million people playing it and sometimes the name gets around because people won't shut up about it. My mother knows what Call of Duty is, and she is a complete non-gamer. She won't even play the Wii. This doesn't necessarily mean they are showing interest in purchasing it. They just happen to know it exists.

Frankly the only way I see COD: WaW approaching 2 million is if Activision skips out on giving the Wii Modern Warfare 2, otherwise I say it's sales will be replaced by MW2 when it comes out.

 

 

 people are talking about the Wii version, non-traditional gamers who like Wii controls are interested in playing a Game set in WW2 (and most likely modern warfare too) on these controls. They dont like the traditional gamepads.

Also, did you note I made this thread on cmas, before brett adjust it up a bit, it appears it needed more. I still think 2 million is tough, and not a sure thing... but I think it can do it.

But if anything, this is a good sign for the Conduit, a FPS game that is clearly over shadowed by 2 monsters is seeing solid sales, I think the Conduit which will have the spotlight to itself can shine if its quality Warrents it.
