However, Sonic and Mario at the Olympics will come out during a very hot period, with several AAA games. It could easily sell over a million, but Sega will be sorely disappointed if they're hoping for 4. |
I completely agree with you Montana. There are just too many other games that have the same or even greater mass market appeal and much better core gamer appeal and review scores. The game may even be scored highly and be really fun, but it's just not going to be able to compete on the Wii with the kind of games that will be out at the time.
I expect the game to do well, but by well I'm thinking 1-2 million lifetime. That's not bad, but 4 million ain't happening.
