Nintendo - Conduit 2 delayed - View Post

Well if there are some kinks at least that shows that they are putting some money into this title to make it work right! Most Wii games companies get to the kinks part and just push it out anyways. But the other reason is good as well, you want there to be nothing standing in its way. Another big game could crush it right now. Plus as it is black op wii is struggling to get to where it would like to be, which is better sales than the last one. If the first Conduit got an average lets say (i did not look at the actual conduit page on vgchartz) 8.2 review, what do you think the sales would be if they actually made a stellar 9.2-9.6 game? Because to be honest folks this is kind of the test! The last to FPS were pretty much shoe-ins to sell good. The conduit 2 will tell us if the Wii really has turned a corner finally with core gamers and FPS in general. I would say 700 thousand in 3 months would be a step in the right direction for the Wii, but they need to keep it up. The other companies are starting to catch up even more than last year, so the Wii needs to keep the fire going on their re-ignited Matureish market. Im American I can make up words!

I really enjoyed the first Conduit game and I wish it had sold better, but I don't think this will come close to 700,000 in 3 months.  That's more likely a lifetime sales number imo.  Goldeneye is a great game and a known brand and it's still under the 1 million mark 10 weeks in.  Conduit 2 has an uphill battle, but I'll be supporting it day 1.
