Cod:waw doesn't have the same quality as the HD versions. It doesn't deserve the same sales.

Where did I say it would sell better then HD version? I said sell better in general then it has currently if it had the same content as the HD version. By cutting stuff out it is like a kick in the balls to Wii owners, and they know they are getting ripped off and will refuse to buy it.

Conduit will sell well if it deserves too. If it doesn't then it won't.

The biggest problem Wii has is that it has CRAP ports with waggle controls, or rushed jobs. The core audience of the Wii will not buy shit.

Even look at Disaster Day of Crisis, that sold like shit cause it was sub standard and that is a Nintendo game.

Hell look at Killzone 2, that game has JUST passed one million according to SCE. A game of KZ2 quality should of done MUCH better. According to you the audience is on the HD consoles, yet only 1 million in two months?

So before you go starting a Conduit failed thread, wait two months.

I'm saying if a major titles like CoD and Metroid Prime 3 doens't pull in outstanding numbers I have little hope for lesser known FPS games. Is my opinion really that crazy?

 no i think not, actually i think you´re right

Metroid is not a popular franchise of Nintendo. To a real gamer it is popular, but the real masses? They've never heard of it and I have never in my life seen any ad for metroid what so ever. You're forgetting that cod is still selling good for the wii.

Why buy a less good version of cod when you can buy it on xbox360/ps3 or pc? Tell me that. I think it's a fair assumption that a lot of wii owners have bought it for their pc insteand. Every wii owner that owns a multiple consoles will most likely have bought it on another console. That's what happens when the game is not the same at all. 8 players? No dlc? Less maps? No splitscreen? No zombie modes? I'm surprised it sold so well despite all of this.

hehe, I must be the only one who didn't. However the only reasons I didn't was because I always want to try out wii remote to see if controls improved and also because I am too busy this year to play online so not like the missing online stuff mattered to me.

MW2 I will most likely get on my ps3 to continue the trend. IF

Reviews; IGN will score it 85 or higher, others much lower im afraid.

Sales; Should have a 100k ++ first week, since it's Wii only. Lifetime it should have a shot at 1 million.

Anyway it's a must buy for me, since im a Wii only owner, and i like FPS games. Everyone here who has a Wii and likes FPS games should buy it, supporting HVS for doing the best.. :)

I think the Teen rating on The Conduit is more of an edge then people think versus Madworld's M rating.

...Even with the nitpicking that has went on with the Conduit I still expect it to get in the 8.0 -9.0 range.

...Sales wise I see the first month maybe in the 100k range.

Yeah well critics are gonna bash it, 'cos that's what they generally do to Wii games, they'll go and compare the graphics and online play to the HD consoles, which shouldn't even cross their mind, really.

For a change, I fully agree with Montana here
