| oniyide said: @jarrod NMH2, you mention lack of ads but lets keep it real, this game was catered to the core audience, not the casuals. The core audience read the gaming mags and websites so they knew that this game existed. If there were commercials and such the casuals who would see it have no interest in the game anyway, Look at Conduit, advertisment out the ass.In this day of internet and high speed info. we need to stop falling on that advertisment excuse. That game didnt sell cause there just was not that big an audience for it on WIi. simp;e |
But why did the audience shrink by half? No More Heroes 1 was pretty well received by the community, and you can figure 2 should have been able to build on that.
Could just be the Wii market's aversion to sequels overall, though i'll agree with jarrod's complaint of diminished advertising (paltry even compared to the poor advertising NMH1 got). The internet gamer represents an irretrievably tiny fraction of the market. A lot of Halo Reach's record-breaking front-loaded sales came from the fact that Microsoft started advertising it back in July.
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
