Forums - Sales - Will the Wii be the 1st console to beat the Ps2 version of a game?

Unless someone starts playing with time travel it would be impossible. Madden 08 and 07 both sold better on the 360 than the PS2. The game database also has Viewtiful Joe selling better on the GC, but it doesn't have to sales for any game past the first one on the GC.

RE4 Wii is waaay overtracked. The game had only shipped 1.15M at the end of 2007 according to Capcom.



"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."

Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.

No, Madden 08 360 or MLB 08 PS3.

See I would like to know where you got that, because someone else said it on a news or chart page and I could not find anything about it... On Capcoms website the last press release regarding RE4:Wii was on October 30th saying that they had shipped 1 million units. (I will agree it is overtracked though because VGC sales at about that time were >900k, and I'm quite sure games need a lot more shelf stock than consoles)



it will - esp. as the Wii userbase grows

Ah... Finally found the original.

However, you could have found this number in about a dozen other places if you had done some simple searching like I just did to find this.

I believe VGC's weekly charts have the game a good deal beyond 1.15M at the end of 2007!

Note: I believe game sales on list are lower than VGC's because they count only single SKU's; Director's Cuts and DualShock editions and Special editions etc. are counted seperately.

The same article has the PS2 version at 2 million, so even if you have current RE4 Wii sales at 1-3-1.5 million there is a vary good shot for this to be the best selling version .



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.
