Interesting... this is the "most wanted" chart I have been following for years: http://the-magicbox.com/topten3.htm Notice how the DS has the most wanted game ;) | 1 | Dragon Quest IX | Square Enix | NDS | | 2 | Final Fantasy XIII | Square Enix | PS3 | | 3 | Biohazard 5 | Capcom | PS3 | | 4 | Persona 3 Fes | Atlus | PS2 | | 5 | Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots | Konami | PS3 |
I have also noticed there isn't really any correlation between positions in the "most wanted", and sales. New Super Mario never got very high on the charts, I think Blue Dragon was #1 for a week or two... Pokemon was nowhere near #1, etc. Does it really make sense that "Devil May Cry 4" is at #20, where Persona 3 is at #4? Actually, the NDS/Wii having 7/20 spots is pretty good - Nintendo games rarely show up here at all. |
Yeah, dragon quest and final fantasy won't sell at all. Do I need to point out that 4 of those are on a playstation? Also, it seems lack xbox... |
I was gonna say Wii... |
Oh yeah, you're right. That too. Heh. |
Want to make a bet? Wii Sports will outsell both Resident Evil 5 (easily) and MGS4 (easily). And guess what - it never appeared in the most wanted charts ;). In fact, I think Wii Play will outsell them as well.
That leaves Final Fantasy - which seems to be the last bastion of the PS3 at the moment. Better pray it stays exclusive, and that SquareEnix don't bring any more FF to the Wii ;)
