Forums - Sales Discussion - TW 07 -- System Seller?

Tiger woods is now ranked at 14 but you can notice that Super paper mario is already ranked at 9 !! This might be a real system seller !



Around the Network

Since when is there a system seller for a system that needs none? TW'07 will not become this, though its brilliant marketing will most assuredly guarantee impressive market sales. Once the Wii has widespread availability I would assign that title to SMG, SSB:B, or MP3. (for the casual or traditional gamer) Of course there's always Wii Orchestra & Wii Fitness that have the ability to further tap into the non-traditional gaming community as Wii Sports has, & could further the console's appeal if that's possible.

For whats its worth my Best Buy is completely sold out of Tiger Woods 07



It won't be because there aren't systems to be found. :p It should do at least decent numbers.



John Lucas, you're posts are some of the best here. Just thought you should know. Oh, and you're awesome

*sigh* Unfortunately only a handful of people on here understand what the hell is going on in this market right now. SMG and MP3 aren't huge system sellers... no way hosei. SS:BB perhaps yes... but not as much as you consider, the market has changed so drastically in the last couple of years. These kind of games are only going to serve to cater for the hardcore market, but most likely won't be purchased by a lot of the casuals as they are too complicated. Impossible to make a lot of hardcore gamers understand this because all they see is the opinion of JUST their peers on internet forums and blogs.

Origin, so you assert Gears & LOZ:TP impressive sales are simply anomalies? SMG & MP3, though MP3 less so, will cross the million threshold quite easily. SMG at 2 million+ is a guarantee. SMG catering only to the hardcore? Is this now Halo?

Super Mario Galaxy will be one of the biggest games/system sellers of the year (or two). It looks like the spiritual successor to Mario 64, as Sunshine was a let down and not indicative of the trend of Mario game sales.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Damnit, quit pickin' on my Sunshine! :p



Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.
