you are never out until the third strike. It will be a success one year from now.

What's considered a success?

Once the internet says so.

 

*talks in serious voice*

I still don't know if that'll be the case.  For this game not to sell as much as the original, which it is a big improvement over, it has to be looked as a disappointment to everyone but Ubisoft.  We know that they only expect the game to sell 500K.  

That's the new thing to do for developers.  Make your predictions for a game so low that you have a good chance of meeting them.   

But that's how these games have performed on the Wii period. There isnt that big market in there unless it has the Nintendo touch. I am watching the sale og MH3 because it could break the trend, but I seriously think it wont change a thing.

This Gen has gone long enough to many things:

Wii: Fun, family console

MS: Multiplayer machine, 3rd party favourate.

PS3: It used to do more in 2006.
