Forums - Gaming - Will Resident Evil 5 affect MadWorld first week sales?

Well, I know I'll only be buying RE that week, though I'll get MW once I get a little more cash.

That said, only around 2% of people own multiple consoles, so I doubt it.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Did GTAIV pull attention away from Mario Kart or Wii Fit?



I'd say a little but I still think madworld will perform pretty good in its first week. Considering its going to be a high scoring game, I think that 80,000 copies in its first week isnt far off. All the big wii fans will be getting madworld, and it could have some mainstream apeal just because of the attention it will draw.

But yeah I'd say a small chunk of gamers will say no to madworld because of RE5 for the first week. I also say that madworld will have a similar if not better review score from IGN. I know thats a pretty bold prediction.



Support good third party games on wii. Buy games like house of the dead overkill, de blob, madworld, the conduit and boom blox.

I'm one of the few people who has access to both and will be buying Mad World first.

I can't justify RE5 when I haven't got the Handcannon!



yeah cause re5 is a better game imo

Did GTA4 affect Mario Kart Wii's first week sales?

Of course, both of those are from massive series, while RE is a pretty big series, and MadWorld is a non-existent series.

So I'll say no, MadWorld's first week would (unfortunately) be pretty bad with or without RE5.
