Forums - Website Topics - Rolstoppable is a MAJOR flop on VGChartz - we need to talk about it

But it made a profit! I have no proof of that, except that RolStoppable threw a party to celebrate the number of replies (and I wasn't invited >=( )

I think the thread relied too heavily on user generated content - when you look at the posts, some posters were able to do pretty awesome stuff with it, but the majority is just lame.

Rol would need to put out a new thread with new content to get the momentum up again.



Ei Kiinasti.

Eikä Japanisti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

 

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

This thread is super funny.

Rol is still funny, too.

^^Over tracked? Obviously, you forget how anticipated a new Rol thread is in Japan! Like I said, wait for the final numbers before jumping to conclusions!!

Do you think it will move hardware?



This is actually a bit of a comeback for the Rol series. Many of his recent threads have been in niche genres and haven't gotten 100 or even 50 replies.

The major plus is, my thread was right. Both of us made a nice profit though.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

DirtyP > Rol

Germany > Austria

Now it all makes sense !



RolStoppable currently has a lot of competition that he has to compete with, the fans have been expecting several threads from Damnyouall, such as "PS3 Custom Firmware 3.21OO Release Imminent". These threads have stolen a lot of RolStoppable's momentum, although I suspect that RolStoppable will show some great legs in next week's numbers.

It's like FF7 compared to FF13

Something that used to be good and somewhat original and groundbreaking has turned into something... well, less of all that.

People are on to roll...



Look at the amount of views compared to the amount of posts in that thread. People are enjoying the thread but no paying for it! The "used thread" market is killing VGChartz!
