Why are some folks so butthurt over this selling well?

It's a great concept, it conveys that concept very well in the title alone, and people enjoy it. What in the world is so wrong with that?

Does gaming just HAVE to be serious business to EVERYONE!? Geez!

Because companies do what makes them the best profit. If something this easily made can get such big revenue, expect to see this stuff coming a lot more.


And when Natal/Move comes out, on those systems too. Quality of upcoming games be damned.

Some games require a diferrent kind of skill to make than others. Otherwise third parties would have made more Just Dances from the get-go.

Quality is a very abstract term when it comes to games.



I LOVE ICELAND!

Yes, so? What's wrong with more games like this?

 

Games like Just Dance being made doesn't mean other games aren't made. Licensed games are very successful, but they haven't stopped other games from being made. Just-Dance-a-likes are hardly gonna take all the development away from your next favorite hardcore game.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

Gotta love the stubbornness of the self proclaimed hardcore gamers. Not only must all games be made specifically for THEM, but to them other types of games and gamers are not even allowed to exist.



oH god.

I feel offended by this game's existence.

Wii Music at least bombed, but Just Dance isn't going to slow down anytime soon. Fun video game + alcohol + appeal to girls = winning formula.

Ubisoft is destroying the industry.

Who would have thought Just Dance will outsell Miyamoto's masterpiece called Wii Music when it was firsr released?

 



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

Someone else on another website said this better than anybody ever could.

"We can complain that by making a console geared towards instant pick-up-and-play, unsophisticated gaming Nintendo have taken the gaming genre backwards, or at least hinder its progress. But what do we consider progress? There seems to be this idea that if we keep producing better iterations of physics systems, push graphics ever closer towards photo-realism, and write more involving stories, eventually there will be a tipping point and non-gamers will be convinced to...er....jump in. If only it were so. These casual gamers will always reduce the kind of games we play to childish rubbish because it involves - again in their eyes - boy's fantasies of speed and weaponry. While we reduce their idea of what games should be to childish rubbish because - in our eyes - they are simple, banal and don't carry any emotional attachment.

Are we that arrogant to presume our view of their games carries more weight than their view of ours? Probably. "I was here first," we could say. But that, in itself, just sounds like another thing a child might say. "

To celebrate I'll Just Dance. *pops it in*

You say tomato, I say tomato 

"¡Viva la Ñ!"

What i find most strange is that this game don't have the music that have its name. Just Dance game don't having Lady GaGa's Just Dance is way too strange.



So people enjoy the game. Get over it, guys. My god.
