Forums - Nintendo - Another potential system seller for Wii in Japan

gorgepir on 24 October 2007

We love golf from Capcom hits stores in Japan in the middle of December.

I think it could be another good 3rd party effort on the Wii.

Super Swing Golf from Tecmo sold only 70k in Japan.

But you never know. Holidays might give it a push.

I wonder which Game will sell more. Pangya! Golf with Style 2 or We Love Golf =?

your prediction ? ^^

This is the first Golf game for the Wii I am considering getting. Been waiting for a really good, in-depth one. Much will depend on reviews.

And I hope EA pull their finger out with *next* years Tiger Woods golf...

gotta love Capcom at the minute - even though they're just publishing this title. With This, RE4, REUC, Zak and Wiki and MH3b there doesn't seem to be a shovel in sight.

I just feel they're embracing the Wii and see it as a breath of fresh air and years of Nintendo support on their other consoles are paying off as they seem to be writing Nostalgic titles like We love golf and Zak and Wiki, just hope the sales also make it worth their while so other third parties follow.



Those people that think they're perfect give a bad reputation to us who are... 

"With the DS, it's fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen, but I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that." - Phil Harrison, Sony

@gawalls
You seem to forget another quality title, Okami. Anyway, Japanese like golf games and this one is made by Camelot and published by Capcom; that alone will move units. I guess ~300k lifetime in Japan (due to holiday push)

I hope they get the putting right. If it's good (36+ Famitsu) then it should sell over 400k in Japan the first month.

I'm expecting this game to be pretty big in Japan. And not just big for it's own sales, but I'm also expecting it to ruin future non motion golf games in Japan. Sort of a "The new Hotshots Golf is a fine game, but why would you really want to play a non Wii golf game?" type of thing.



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.

It's made by the same people behind Hot Shots and published by Capcom. Sounds like a formula to success, I can see this eventually taking everything out of Hot Shot's sales power and becoming a big seller for the Wii.

I think it's going to take a sequel to do that much, but this first me thinks will be about 350k by the end of the year and then 550k lifetime in Japan alone.

This has alot of potential for success in America too, what with Tiger Woods 08 seemingly having flopped for er, being the exact same as 07.
