Heavy niche genre games such as JRPGs, WRPGs, Sandbox, FPS, Sports, and racing games can easily sell 5 million in the first month. However, if you look at the legs of a Fallout: New Vegas, Red Dead Redemption, Fable 3 and on, you will see they don't sell like a Wii Sports whom many "core" games easily write off as "casual" game. Looking at the list provided by Kivi95, I don't see any 20 million sellers there like a Wii Sports, Wii Fit, or Wii Play type game that we all know Microsoft is trying to create for the Kinect. All Kinect has to is have Kinect Sports, Kinect Adventures, Child of Eden or some other Kinect game catch fire in 2011 and sell 15 million plus to burn Sony, while Sony needs 3 to 4 of those titles to sell in the 5 million range. This is the power of a platform aimed at your consumer who is unfamiliar with video games. Wii Sports, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Wii Sports Resort, and Wii Fit Plus were not released in 2010, but accounted for more than 48 million in software sales in 2010*. All exclusive, not multiplatform to boost and inflate sales like a CoD game. If there is a Kinect Fit, then you can kiss Sony's vaunted 2011 exclusive list goodbye. * = http://gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/83386/top-selling-games-of-2010-multi-wii-ps3-psp-ds-x360/ |
Your Shape Fitness and Zoomba workout thingy is Kinect Fit.
Good analysis all around.
V: And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, Adam Sutler. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. Last night I sought to end that silence.
