Do you need to pre-order to get the demo?

If you do then people shouldn't take VGChartz pre-order numbers as definitive proof of 100k+ sales.

Remember M.A.G.?

I was thinking the same thing. First week sales are only a couple days... 90k preorders doesn't eman they'll all pick it up the first day it comes out...or as you pointed out....at all.

I've preordered lots of stuff and never actually picked it up.

 

I also agree with whoever posted above about a boycott. I have several MH fans who are all boycotting the game, for two reasons.

1) it's on wii and not 360 or ps3 or psp
2) They posted mostly bullshots when first debuting the game. (This upset them a lot. One of the guys just rags on it all the time "looks like a psp game on a console")

Also, I heard the the multiplayer aspect was a significant deterrent for several of them.

That honestly just sounds like people who don't want to buy it and coming up with excuses afterwords.  Those are some of the worse excuses i've ever heard.

it's possible. They all own wiis though, and have logged like 200+ hours into several MH games.

It might be just justification, you're right. I do know one other person who is buying mhtri who hangs out with all those guys, but has never played any MH game before.

That actually makes it worse... not better.

I mean think about it... they are not buying a game... in a series they love more then most... for a console they own....

because it's not on PS3 or 360... and because previews...

Also... they're upset because it has Multiplayer?  How is that a bad thing?  Heck, they even let you store your character in the wiimote so you can do the co-op play just like you would with the PSP.

 

If I told someone I wasn't going to buy a Tactics Ogre game because it was on the 360, it looked like Ogre Battle 64 and because it had an optional online multiplayer mode... i'd want them to smack me in the head. 

They literally don't want to buy it because it's not on the wrong system they own, the graphics are only as good (though really they are better) and because it has extra modes... I mean, that's just silly.  Could you imagine not buying a game... from a series you love, because of those reasons?
