very sad indeed. MP3 is such a good game. Too bad Nintendo never advertise it better. It deserves better sales.

But then again I have nothing agains WaW good Wii game.

 

I don't think the problem for the Metroid Prime(s) sales lies in it's adverising. Anybody who's into gaming knows what Metroid Prime is, and that Prime 3 is out there. The problem is, that most people who want to play shooters, want to run and gun, not explore and try to solve puzzle after puzzle.

 

I love MP3, but I've seen what happens when my friends try to play it...

Well yer I agree in some respect. Perhaps I should of gone into a bit more detail. Considering the Wii has sold so much more than GC. You would think that the regular MP fans would of gotten MP3 and then with some advertising, perhaps some NEW console gamers would of picked it up.  Like I would of expected maybe 500K more units sold to new players. However they may of been put of by the fact that it is called 3, and they haven't played 1,2.

I think that the cheaper MP1 (hopefully 2 in the future) with Wii controls will help maybe rejuvinate sales of MP3 to a newer audience.
