I think like you said there is some "hype" for it in America. 75,000-100,000 is what I will say. If they can keep it from being a Gamestop exclusive that would be even better! |
A what now? Retailer exclusive games is an alien concept to me. Surely that's only an initial launch thing.
|
Xenoblade which was part of project rainfall as well as the last story and Pandora's tower, is supposedly only going to be sold at gamestop in America.
|
Gamestop must hand over a ton of money to get that sort of deal. I suppose for Gamestop 100% of 500K sales is better than 50% of 750K sales, or something like that. Not so much for the publisher, which of course is where the money hatting comes in.

Not sure if you guys are talking about TLS or Xenoblade but you could pre-order TLS on Amazon in US. Although If its xenoblade youre talking about then yes that is a Gamestop exclusive.
|
My thing is that I have a hard time getting my head around retailer exclusivity. It just seems wrong somehow.
|
A few reasons why NOA would do this. Having it go just through Gamestop, they wouldnt even have to do their own advertisment, "come in too, GS to get this great Wii game that is ONLY available here" its a win win for both parties but not really gamers. And Ninty just doesnt have that much confidence in the title, so now they could do the bare mininum to shut the OP rainfall guys up
