Some marketing might have helped (in the UK). I didn't even know the game had been released.

ofcourse ..
but I wonder if Wii owners prefer the PS3 or the 360 version ;)

It's got "Extraction" in the title and the other versions don't. That's worth $20, isn't it? Besides, people interested in it are going to be people who liked the original. They'll be informed.

The biggest drawback, in my opinion, is that people who played the original, played it in HD. Are they going to be satisfied with a Wii game? It's a game that they loved, on a different console, with weaker graphics, and 100% totally different gameplay. That's like Pikmin being released as an FPS on the 360!

if there is a Pikmin FPS game on 360 with score rating in hih 80s. you really think it will sell ONLY 50K?

 

Let's get real here.

50k in a short period of time. Let's not blow this too far out of proportion.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

I hope the people looking at it don't miss the fact that the PS360 versions of Dead Space have had a whole year to accumulate reviews, while Extraction hasn't even had a month to do the same yet.



Super World Cup Fighter II: Championship 2010 Edition

Theres a very small percentage of people who own wii's and love M games, which in MY OPINION is why M rated games usually flop on Wii (Some do good though, like RE4 Wii edition).
