Delay for quality control?

Has that ever happened?

Delay usually means that something was/is wrong right?

But anyhoo, I agree with your predictions.

 

More than likely games that are delayed for long periods of time are becuase they got to the testing stage and are deemed bad.  Now usually the case is less serious such as bugs or other glitches but sometimes games will come back and are said to be absolute shit and are sent back to the drawing board.  Most games after that don't survive and are completely taken down aside from the engine the game ran on. 

Disaster more than likely had this issue.  We know Red Steel 2 had this issue and there are other games that have been rumored to hit something similar such as Killzone 2.  It's really not uncommon.  I"m glad its there such that we don't get bad games.  Remember smaller individual devs can't do this such as why we get those popcorn arcade titles.  They'd never pass the approval of large publishers such as Nintendo, Ubisoft, or Sony. 

Anyways yea I'd say my predictions are pretty reasonable considering the title right now.

Are you serious!!?? Hehe I know you are not, nice joke!

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Well maybe they will start a massive marketing campaign starting tomorrow..............

or maybe not..

I really wished they would though but seeing the changes of that ever happening I do not see it sell much more than 500k.

Japan: 30k
Europe: 200k
America: 230k
World: 460k

Maybe total sales of about 700k-800k, but Nintendo reallly needs to advertise this game.

What if this game turns out to be just flat-out awesome. What a pleasant suprise that would be.

Your predictions look fair though.

I know you think I'm joking but Data Design let's out games purposely that have glitches in the gameplay and visuals.  Ubisoft would never let that pass.  And remember evne Ubi's casual department it still has decent quality it's not all total pieces of crap... just games you'd never buy.

Kenology- haha well I already like what I hear about it from Nintendo and then the screens. I'm about sold. It's like Resident Evil on a disaster setting instead of Zombies.

deathcape- selling a million is going to be really tough but Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn did pretty well with little advertising so maybe this will have similar things if its good. But of course FE is a well known brand.

Maynard- yea I'm afraid its going to bomb as well. Actually everything points to a bomb. ONly reason none of us are saying it's going to bomb is becuase the publisher is Nintendo. I believe if it was made by any other dev we'd be without a doubt. But Ninty games sale so can't count it out yet. I would be ecstatic though if this did 500k WW.

I'am a optimist, so I think more than one million WW!
