Capt. Obvious for the win. Just Dance seems to be the only game Wii owners will buy this holiday. Its the most popular game on the system. Just like last year and the year before. It not really nothing to be proud of considering that the HDs didnt get a JD game till the third game. Wii>360>WiiU>PS3, yes PS3 dead last cause for the most part they dont care about that franchise. Same with Epic Mickey 2 but i think that game will bomb on all consoles minus maybe the Wii U. Its not getting anywhere near the ads or attention the original got.


Well it is not about it being obvious that this will happen. It is about the Wii being a beast and even when it is dead in a gutter it can sell a ton of games if it has to. Lego Batman was more proof of this.

 

Also....why would Epic Mickey 2 bomb? Now that it is spread thin it may sell less on each console than the first one, but over all I bet it sells more actually. The real slap in the face to me is Kirby anniversary sales.

IMHO thats not really beastly, not when PS2 was still (and is still) selling hardware and games years after its succesor came on the scene. If ONE party game doing pretty good on WIi, which will probably be the only game that does really good on Wii all year is impressive to you, then by all means. TO each his own. Lego Batman isnt impressive to me either, as its doing about as well or a bit better than the 360 version, its not like its blowing away the other versions like it used to do. This will probably be the last JD main entry on Wii as they will focus on WIi U and maybe PS360

I already explained why it would bomb, its not getting anywhere near the coverage or attention the original got. In times square there was a huge ass banner for the original and various posters across the city, I havent seen one yet. It wont sell more, the only way that could happen is if they push the WIi U version as that will be on a new console, but im calling it now. Wii,PS360 version will not sell more than the original. No one is buying this on HD not when they could be buying COD, Halo, AC etc.
