@lordtheknight  knowing that people who bought GE would have bought Blops if they had no GE to buy and vice versa.(1) Im sorry but you can't combine the sale of two games to make the situation look better than it is.(2) Im not saying that there is no audience for FPSs on Wii and they shouldnt bother but its not that much either.(3) Im thinking 2 mil tops is what an FPS will sell on WIi(4)


1. I wrote "canibalizing sales", which is actually the opposite of what you are claiming. It means "people would buy fewer copies of one game because another is around".

2. I'm sorry, but the term "both were the fastest selling FPS on the Wii" doesn't mean "their individual sales should count together". Why? Because if you don't count one game only, the other STILL sold faster than other FPS on the Wii.

3. You're confusing this discussion with another. Read my comments here again.

4. That's more because of lack of FPS compared to releases. We kind of need to see releases in the amount of the other systems to actually know that one.

^^^ 1-3  points taken. not sure about 4 though, i think one of the reasons it will be only 2 mil, is because those others have so much FPSs. there are alot of multi-console owners and there getting their fixes on the HDs/PCs, but hell im sure more games would have increased the install base, but that is the woulda shoulda didnt game, third parties didnt and thats where we stand

Actually that's basically the reason I stated.

Why DS and not 3DS?



@onyide and Lord
