You know why I wanted Madworld to flop? Personally, I thought the game looked great. I wanted it to be successful. Know what ruined it? Nintendo fanboys. If the game was successful, you'd essentially end up with threads like these. Pretentious threads equivalent to "nah nah nah nah nah nah, you were wrong and I was right." This happens every time a niche Wii game sells well that was hyped on this site.

By the way, I'd wait more than a couple weeks before making any decisions on whether or not it flopped. Remember how Zack and Wiki and No More Heroes got adjusted down? That didn't mean they weren't still successful, but the same thing could happen here.

Don't hype up a lightning rod of hate if you can't take the hate. Madworld was going to get criticism.

But wouldn't they have been directing that so-called pretentiousness to anti-Wii trolls (you know, the ones with the Wii-is-a-kiddy-toy mentality)?  Why would you want it to flop because of that?

 

The problem is that the people who say things like that (the Wii is a toy, has no games, is kiddy, etc.), well, I don't really respect them. I don't listen to what they say because I often know before even reading it that it's not worth it. When I do read it, it doesn't bother me nearly as much because I have such a low view on the person. Whereas in a case like this, I can actually put the person in a view of respect and get bothered by what they say.
