Forums - Nintendo - Why do you think Captain Rainbow bombed?

Did it sell 10,000 copies? Cause... that was like... my max expectations for week 1 sales.

With 5,000 being average sales.

Yeah... 4.3K first day sales actually seems.... good to me.

4k sales first day, it may pull 8k sales first week. But as other's have said, it is a strange game, and strange isn't mainstream. Plenty of Nintendo games have bombed in the past. Honestly I'm not surprised, as Wario Land: Shake It! only sold 25k first week, and that is much more mainstream.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Nintendo Shows Off New Wii Game Captain Rainbow

2.5d fighting, classic adventure, and a cast of obscure Nintendo characters?

I'm pretty sure it falls more into the Adventure genre, than the Action-Adventure one.

 



becasue is makes no sense.



...they packaged some cluster bombs with the game

Bets with Conegamer:

Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Brain age had no hype whatsoever and it's doing OK



It bombed because it's a strange strange game. Want to know what other strange Nintendo game bombed? Odama. Not all Nintendo games sell off publisher brand name.

Orly? SHow me all this action. Where are all the enemies that you fight? What combat is there?

 



LOL... If you want adventure... you need action...

Why to have action without adventure?
