I get it when people say it's ON RAIL game. I really do.

but how do you explain the failure of The Conduit? The game is hyped as AAA title by MANY MANY people here (Please, if you did, just admit it), and frankly, I can easily pull up many threads here with people predicting 2+ million LTD sales figure.

I think the better question is... who here said they would buy this game FIRST-DAY and didn't..

and frankly, why not? the game is no AAA, but it's far better than 90% of other Wii games out there.

It's because there are several on-rails games on the Wii.  People that want a good lightgun game for the Wii most likely already have one.

I wrote an entire thread explaining the failures of the Conduit.  It's called "Why The Conduit Bombed!!!"  Dig it up if you want to.  I actually did buy that game when it came out so you can't fault me.  I don't know about 90% of Wii games being better than it though.   Great controls, good graphics, and average everything else.
