Like it or not the wii is never really going to get the BLOCKBUSTER 3rd party stuff like GTA IV ---- 6 million 1 week

AC & COD4 -- 400K launches....900K 2 consoles combined (AS also being a NEW IP)

and so on

damnit! now i'm never gonna get a crap game like AC on my console! damnit!

Let me guess , you never played it but you still bash the game because it did better than most 3rd party Wii games ...

 

BB did badly no matter how we look at the numbers . Could it have legs ? Possible , it wouldenmt be uncommon for a Wii game but the truth is that first week sales are bad ... and I mean real bad ...

 

 haha i did, on my bro's 360. It's repetive and boring.

Hey, different strokes for different blokes. You happen to own Red Steel, which is the definition of a crap game whether you liked the game or not. And the Wii is full of so many crappy shovelware games that Assassin's Creed would actually put most 3rd party Wii offerings to shame. As for Boom Blox, the game will sell well. Electronic Arts has really found a place for themselves on the Wii, and Boom Blox will likely have a strong showing in America and Europe, even if it takes several months. It may not have the world's best looking box art, nor is as hyped as Brawl, but word of mouth will carry this game to a strong showing. Don't be discouraged if the second week is low, because after ten or so weeks or steady sales, it should have racked up quite a decent overall number, and enough to be successful.
