Forums - Sales Discussion - Why can't little big planet sell like wii music?

Because more people prefer Wii Music. Believe it or not, but just because you like a game doesn't mean other people will. I personally have zero interest in LBP. Wii Music, on the other hand, isn't a game I'm interested in buying but I'll play it with my nephew.

You have got to be fucking kidding me...



Hey, if LBP was on the Wii it might have outsold Wii Music........



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

Wii music is a cheaper game on a cheaper console.

Simply because Wii Music is for the Wii, and LittleBigPlanet is for the PS3.

Little big planet is a way better game in my opinion.

Wii music is set to outsell lbp next week.

Both games came at the same time, lbp was bundled.

How cum wii music is able to outsell it?

 

 There you go.

Because revewers always ignore pre-teens in rating games. Wii Music may not thrill you or I but think how much fun it would be for the 5-12 group. Easy to play, your Mii in the game, 66 different istruments to play.

Now which console will a 5-12 yo most likely own?

Game - Set - Match

Eh, hardware is a different matter, but I would hope that they would get Guitar hero or Rock Band which are better music games.

Guitar Hero and Rock Band are targeted at an older, although overlapping demograhic. You have to be a certain size to handle the instruments.

Also among the younger crowd 60 some different instruments is a big draw
