It doesn't sell where I'm at so I don't know anyone who has it yet, and from the people I've talked to that own a Wii I don't know anyone getting it..

 

I've read a lot about it from this site over the past few months and just failed to understand why fans of the Wii were so excited about this game... It's not anything against the game, I mean if you want to play it have fun.. But I just missed the reason people believe this is going to be such a big seller. I would have thought in America that the fitness part would make it fly off shelves myself, but it hasn't. So what am I missing? Honestly, who has it and plays it to the point where they can recommend this game, and if so why?

 

 Isn't it a bit late for this game not to be a huge seller? Even if it did was not sold out in huge swathes of the Western world, and even if it did not have legs for years as is assumed for all games of this nature, the game has already sold nearly 5 million copies. If you want that put more specifically, that means it's already sold about as many copies as Gears of War, and will likely end up selling significantly more than Metal Gear Solid 4.

The game is already a blockbuster. The question is, now, how big a blockbuster is it going to be? It could be a very large, CoD4 size blockbuster, or it could be very, very, very large, Nintendogs sized blockbuster. We'll see as time goes on.
