Emergencyz maybe



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Wii Disaster and prod by miyamoto it would have sold millions.

11ht11 call me whatever you want, just have a look at chartz and you'll see by yourself... Why do you think third parties continue to develop on ps3/360 when the wii has this big userbase? Because they love "HD"? Huh huh, that's because it's impossible to sell on wii if you're a third.

And That is the main problem of this console, their customers are not "educated" to buy something else than nintendo stuff.

let's be serious here. it is not simply a case of not being tracked. the game bombed in sales and that's the truth of the matter. it may be difficult to accept as a nintendo fan but that's just the truth. it did not make the uk top 40 last week and did not make it this week either. r we suggesting that not only is vgchartz not tracking the game but so is uk chart track?

Many stores had it in their "top selling titles"

ALSO, it IS advertised on TV.

If it is, Nintendo are doing the worst possible job they could for it. I havent seen a single advert.

Impossible. You can't sell 2million when you only produce about 17 copies.

Also, you need to stop this shit.

Just lol: "they forgot to track it..."

Disaster bomb, that's a fact, this is a new IP and even if it's made by nintendo, most of wii owners want their mario/zelda/pokemon franchise, nothing else...

 

LOL at you

 

of course it didnt bomb this hard. it's advertised here and Nintendo is pushing the game a bit

 

it should sell more than ok, especially on long term

Seriously, people, bomb or not, when it's been on the top sellers list for stores, it can't simply not exist on the charts. It's just not possible. The situation is, it's not being tracked. Once we actually see some sales figures, yeah, it might be a bomb, but the fact of the matter is simply that it's not being tracked.



Commando on 05 November 2008

yeah I have a hard time believing it sold less than Biohazard 0 at 320 copies.
