Yea ill agree with you,it will reach a mill.

Not really, since there is hardly a game on the Wii it can be compared to. Brutally murdering opponent after opponent, rated M, banned in Japan and Germany, no online multiplayer. If anything, the buzz generated by all the controversy will generate some sales, but fact is, we have no clue how the fuck it is going to do.

Don't get me wrong, if I had things my way, this game would do Gears of War numbers, but that doesn't seem to be the case...

World at War has two advantages over Madworld or any other Third party game on the wii. One is the Call of Duty name. And two, its a first person shooter, the most popular genre so far this generation. You can make comparisons if you want, but leave World at War out of it.

The Wii has less than 15 quality games.

That is truly pathetic, although Mario Galaxy is definitely one of my favorite games this gen.

Unfortunately it's not. Madworld could still flop, you have to accept that possiblility and admit that you can't track based on the first week (for good or for bad).

for some reason this reminds of the whole "wii owners only want [add game title] because its on the wii"

So, World at War should have had a huge opening, what with it's brand recognition and popular genre, right?

trust me sonny, i know all about nmh sales as that argument is like a yoyo with you, it always comes back. It 's of course all fine and dandy that Suda was pleased with the sales. no doubt there, that's why we're finally getting a sequal to it, but i'm talking about market perception, does the sales for nmh make other devs make games like it but more gradoise?

so far we have only sega trying that with Madworld. and we Have less than 60 k of first week sales for that one. We may well try saying to oursleves not to expect much with niche games like this but that doesn't really go with devs, see? It either sells a decent amount, enough to warrent future projects or it doesn't, and the way i see it, most devs aren't willing to bring any big games like resident evil, tekken, street fighter, mgs, ff or second tier games like a normal dead space, left 4 dead because they do not see the console selling enough sw to warrent such decisions.

Or do you mean to tell me that you don't find it strange that the Wii having almost 50% of the market hasn't made the devs flock to it? It's almost funny since if one or two big devs did release a big game on the wii the hardcore crowd would appear in greater numbers on the wii scene which would make other devs take notice of this.

On a side not, i have NEVER heard of a case like this where the definitively winning  and leading console would be so abandoned by the third party developers :/.
