I didn't say games have to be bloody and pornographic to be good. I stated what people like and I mean older people. I'm 25 years old and I 'm not gonna be playing Wii sports, Mario, or Pokemon for ever and my older frineds don't play them either. I like games that is more realistic like MLB the Show 09 or KZ2. |

| C_Hollomon said: Wii sales is going down cause of the games it have. I had a Wii and I only liked Mario Galaxy. I didn't see any other games I want so I sold my Wii. I'm not saying Wii have bad games but how many games on the Wii is M rated. Maybe 3-5 I guess I really don't know while the PS3 and 360 have hundreds. We all heard of this "sex sells" right. PS3 and 360 have alot sexual content games and bloody, killing, and other stuff that make people like it more. Wii just have to many friendly, nice kid stuff that is cute for a while but if you a hardcore gamer that want a game to get your blood bowling and heart beating then you will want to play hardcore games. |
The following released M rated games say hi:
Resident Evil 4
MadWorld
Call of Duty: World at War
No More Heroes
House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return
House of the Dead: Overkill
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
CSI Hard Evidence
The Godfather: Blackhand Edition
Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop
Tenchu: Shadow Assassins
Manhunt 2
Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers
Mortal Kombat Armageddon
Obscure: The Aftermath
Target Terror
Broths in Arms: Double Time
Driver: Parallel Lines
Scarface: The World is Yours
Alone in the Dark
Far Cry: Vengeance
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Escape from Bug Island
A fair amount more than 3-5... although I'll admit probably only about 10 are worth mentioning, and Mario Galaxy isn't on the list of mature rated games, so I am not sure what mature ratings have to do with anything?

what you are saying is why Wii is selling more, not why is selling less i believe the Wii suits at the lifestyle of a wider range of people, both hardcore and casual, like me for example : P

I'm just stating my opinion on why the Wii sales went down. Why everyone jumping on me like I said something wrong. If you like the Wii then good for you. I don't care what you like. I'm a M rated game type of person and I also play T and E rated games but the ones on the Wii just isn't my type.

Ok nice list there but none will make me want to buy the Wii again. I also don't like the Wii controller which is another reason why I sold my Wii. I know Mario isn't M rated I didn't say it was did I.

so why did you buy the wii in the first place if you didn't like the wii controller - i'vee never seen so many trolls since Labrynth
C_Hollomon
we don't care if you or anyone else in this world sold his Wii, we are just saying to you that Wii has M-rated games, maybe not a lot, but "enough" let's say
if you like the controller or not it's your choice (for god's sake) it's just taste
maybe the reason really is the games, but i mean the games at this period not generally as you mean it
don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Totally agree - he's obviously just a kid, guess it when you get old enough to experience sex and violence for yourself it begins to loose it's appeal. Thats probably why I play games like mysims and pretend i'm single |
I'm no kid son. I'm 25 with a girl friend. You must be blind because if you look around you will see sex and violence sales. I'm not saying it's a good thing that it do but it does. Look at the violence and sex content in GTA games. If the game never had that it would have never sold the way it did. Wii games sell good but the Wii is a family console.

That would be a hell of a sale - Sex and Violence on sale here - 50% off!!
I'm not saying it doesn't sell - of course it does but i'd like to think most of those people that buy into sex and violence aren't as narrow minded to only buy things related to sex and violence and not dismiss games such as Zak and Wiki, De Blob, little kings story and an entire console because there's a variety of games.

If sex and violence is what drives sales, I must've missed a whole load of such content in MK Wii...
| TheSource said: Wii is in a drought in terms of recent software releases so it is selling based on its cataogue of big hits. New hits will kick demand back up. The scary thing is Wii was in a drought in early 2007, and briefly dropped to something like 55,000 per week in March 2007 in the Americas. Wii has sold over 100,000 per week in the Americas in every week since February 2008 - a period of 14 months, about 60 weeks. With Golden Week coming, Wii will be at 40k/45k the next two weeks in Japan. Wii may dip a bit below 100k before Punch Out releases in Others and the Americas, but it should jump back up when it releases. Mothers Day, Fathers Day, and graduation weeks (June) all provide boosts for hardware. The next ~6 weeks could easily be quiet though. After that WSR and M+ should provide longer lasting boosts April 25 30k Japan 110k Americas 110k Others.....world: 250k May 2 40k Japan 105k Americas 105k Others....world 250k GW May 9 45k Japan 100k Americas 100k Others....world 245k GW May 16 28k Japan 112k Americas 90k Others ...world 230k Mother's Day May 23 25k Japan 140k Americas 120k Others....world 285k EA Active/Punch Out May 30 22k Japan 130k Americas 113k Others...world 265k I figure Wii Sports Resort can kick Wii up to 50k+ for a few weeks, and since June is always a good month compared to May in the Americas, Wii should be ~flattish in June worldwide despite being down in April/May |
What is Golden Week?
I've heard that used a lot as a reason that Wii sales will increase, but isn't Golden Week a week in Japan with a public holiday in it? So wouldn't that improve the HW sales of all consoles, not just the Wii?
Am I misunderstanding something?
