This game was getting a lot of hype in a lot of different places, so I don't think expecting much higher sales for it than previous Wii mature themed games which really haven't sold that well on the Wii in comparison to how they have done on PS3 360, was just wishful thinking, and on a system where things like Wii Fit have sold so many copies, I don't think it's wrong to hope for a breakout mature-themed game.

It's fine to hope, but expectations need to be realistic.

This game is getting decent marketing, so I hope it does well. On the other hand, these are the ex-Clover Studio guys, and none of their games were huge hits despite being critical successes.

I mean this game really deserves to outsell Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Sports, and Wii Play, and it would give the Wii some credibility if it would do so.

Same score as Resident Evil 5.

I am not worried.

Compared to those games, Madworld is an extremely niche game. Your point makes no sense.

The problem with that logic is no game on any system released or released for a while will outsell those games except MAYBE WSR. That is like asking The Watchmen to outsell Titanic to get some credibility....No movie will outgross Titanic for at least 10 years. It is in other words foolish.

At any rate it is a game and that is what is supposed to be sold on videogame consoles, not retooled versions of Radioshackesque bowling simulators.

Glad the Wii is seeing It's first true AAA title of the year, as long as Gamespot rides the wagon.

It's just that simple.
