Try another strawman, since that is not the context of the hard work comments.



What are you talking about....It takes alot of effort & time into puting out a-half game with last gen graphics!!!


Well making it something that appeals to over 20 million people still can't be that easy (or else it would be replicated by third parties), even if the other games still took a lot more effort.

More likely 20 million people bought an extra controller that happened to came with a game. Don't pretend Wii Play is great by any measure and ignore the main factor here because everybody else would know you're lying and trying to flame the thread.


Man, stuff like that really gets under my skin. It's like someone bitching about Internet Explorer being the best browser out there because it has half of the market.

really quite impresive for reach. And as someone said, not looking great for move or sports champions at least since it was outsold by resort on its lunch and people cant complaint because champions was also bundled

or simply throw in the main first party controller for free...


Um, have you checked the price of the Wiimote vs Wii Play? It's not free. Those people still chose to buy the game in droves, even with the controller alone being less money.

And the bundle argument needs proof that bundles can make that many sales on a rgular basis, or we still have an extraordinary case. So far only Wii Sports Resort has come close.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

hmmm hate to break it to you both are about $40 now in most stores with wii play occasionally being more expensive at $50 in a few. And hate to brake it to you again The game only sold because of the wii mote. Only reason period. Its a terrible game, like beyond terrible. There are other games wii fans can show off such as mario kart wii, wii fit, any of its 10mil that aren't wii play or wii sports. Nintendo gave out 30million free wii play games. Congrats to them.

It seems like Move caused a slight bump in NA. I was expecting higher numbers for Reach but 4 Million Week One WW is still impressive.



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Slaughterhouse Is The Sh*t  .... NOW ........ B_E_L_I_E_V_E

And maybe I'm the exception (sad if true, and probably is), but Wii play was not a compelling reason to buy a Wii.  At least not to the hardcore.  Fire Emblem.  Now, that's hardcore.  And how many copies of that was sold in comparison to Wii Play?



Hackers are poor nerds who don't wash.

So why was "everyone" saying Move did nothing for the PS3?
