Don't be so sure. A couple of the DS CODs almost hit 1 mil. This one has a chance over time. I certainly wouldn't expect 2 mil, though.

really mugen?
Its all good to get excited about a game if you want it and its also all good to state why you think this type of game is a bad placement for the device.
Its still a decent vita discussion and as the site's point is to discuss sales potential.. good or bad. Maybe some people just need to realize its not personal and join the discussion.

True with FAR higher userbases. I'm factoring in the lower appeal for the genre on portables and the lower appeal of Vita in itself so far.
I'll wait for a zombies confirmation before I get excited.
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

really now? you do realize there is a 'sales' section for that? Please feel free to use it
I'm not gonna argue with you about why these details are great :) cuz let's face it. You are not gonna say anything positive about the vita no matter what
I'm not taking this personally, just using this as an example to people like xxain who complained about the official threads on the site. If you honestly think the sony sections is not plagued with bitching/dooming from people who don't even own a vita or have an agenda, then you are being blind. But hey I guess you are also one of them.
pls, try not quote me. I rather not continue this meaningless conversation with you.

Allowing people to play zombie co-op on the go with each other could be huge. Mario kart on the go huge.
Time for hype

If it has DS like connection for system to system, then that would be pretty cool. I guess I'm just peeved at the 3G version not allowing 3G actual play. lol
However, with the userbase and the slow sales of Vita, I'd still expect less than 500,000 in sales.
Otherwise, being stuck to wifi is just meh. Rather play on my PS3 for $10 more at most.

Sure I've been negative on Vita while I was super positive on Xperia Play before it was released.
I'm not negative on Sony, just think they keep f'ing up their potential.
Also, the sales section is for general sales. If its specific to Sony then this is proper and can be focused on sales just as the OP asked.

1. It does
2. I think the general idea is that this will boost hardware for vita

1. So hopefully this game will utilize that.
2. I don't think so. I think the mass COD consumer will spend $10 (vs $350) and get it on their home console as playing on wifi restrictions is still too limiting.
Its going to take a few BIG first party true exclusive experiences to make Vita take off as is OR a significant price drop. Unfortunately Sony doesn't seem to provide the exclusive experiences like Nitnendo does with Pokemon and other portable experience only titles and they simply couldn't afford a significant price drop on the hardware.
I'm not trying to be overly negative here either. Just pointing out my opinion on what a portable needs to be highly successful.
