Even if it was more true to the HD releases in regards to content that wouldn't have a huge impact on sales in my opinon. Even if it has more content than the HD consoles I doubt it would sell more copies.

I doubt any of us would care. Seriously... No one(Ok, only smart persons) is expecting this game to sell 2.5M copies so stop trolling.

I'm not trolling. I'm actually having a conversation. But you're a huge fanboy so I don't even know why I'm talking to you.

No, you pretty much insult the wii and Nintendo in every post you make. It's pretty annoying actually. I can just imagine when the first week sales of the conduit come in. I'm 99% sure you'll post things like wii can't sell hardcore games, the conduit bombed,etc...

double post.

I never said it would sell millions more, I said it would sell better. Stop assuming better means MILLIONS.You really don't know much about Wii owners do you? If they know they are getting dicked in content compared to HD version, they refuse to buy the game. Or if a game comes out 6 months after other versions it just doesn't sell ie PES2009, compare that to PES2008. I will give you another example. MOH on Wii in Australia, they took out the online, a SHITLOAD of people returned the game the same day they baught it. Big mistake on EA's part.

That's just a fact. You don't need me to point that out. I'm not the one saying this game is going to sell record numbers for the Wii.

 

So, it's also a fact that 1Million games are epic fail and that they don't sell well. You know, cod:waw sold over a million and is still selling. Why bring up HD consoles in pretty much every post you make on nintendo discussion anyway? Your logic is flawed.

I didn't mean it would sell better than the HD version, now you are assuming. Looking at the top 50 it seems like Wii owners avoid games that isn't already a major franchise, developed by Nintnedo, or minigames. Clearly a lot of developers don't understand Wii owners either considering all the bombs.

Either way this conversation is going no where. My point was Conduit most likely won't sell a million or even millions.

If Conduit sells a million I would consider that a success. If it only sells 500K I would consider it a success.

CoD World at War selling a million isn't that impressive to me considering the large user base of the Wii and its huge seller on other consoles.
