Dead Rising Wii flops in Japan, no reviews yet. Does Capcom know it's crap?

The 360 version sold better overseas than in Japan. They don't take well to sandbox games there. And Capcom didn't expect it to sell a lot, or else they would have shipped more.

Plus this is a WII GAME. Why do you people ALWAYS FORGET you can't use opening sales?

Now the game could still sell poorly (as Okami unfortunately did), but claiming it dead on the first day?

I don't care if you hate it. That's outright ignorance of a pattern that has shown up again and again.

 

There is a track record of Wii titles not published by Nintendo having legs in Japan ?

Now that's new information....

 

It's not new. You just didn't bother to research.

Just from the million sellers we have these games that had legs (which is not selling constantly, as even Nintendo only has a few games that do that)

Mario & Sonic had legs (you wrote published by Nintendo, which this wasn't)
