Forums - Sales - Reggie: Modern Warfare 2 may have trouble maintaining sales while NSMB Wii will sell consistently

I agree. MW2 will sell millions on the first week and hundreds of thousands on week two, followed by even less each week.

Whereas NMSBWii will sell millions for a couple weeks, then a much larger hundreds of thousands for a few months. It will still beat 360 by end of January as he first stated and will beat it across all platforms by the end of their respective lives.

I have to agree because MW3 will be out in a year or two. That is how activision milks.

Sure, MW2 will drop pretty quickly DURING THE HOLIDAY PERIOD.

I expect MW2 to have stronger legs then the original.

The reason COD4 had legs is because it was the definitive online game for both PS3 and 360, when someone bought a new console, added their friends on live/psn it was only a matter of weeks until they saw everyone playing COD4, and bought it so they could play with their mates.

2 years of this built up the Call of Duty market to what we saw MW2 is now, 7 million first day etc. However why would legs fall? There are now more people with friends playing this game, and because PS3 and 360 sales are stronger then 2 years ago, there should be more people who will buy the consoles, see people playing MW2 and in turn buy it.

NSMB should outsell the 360 version of MW2 in the end, but it won't outdo the PS360 combined sales.


  ROFL, did you even read ioi's post?  MW2 having better legs than MW1, lol.

How about you come up with your own opinion and reasoning why it won't have as good legs and pull your nose out ioi's arse?

Less than a week after making a prediction he's already trying to back out of it......

I don't see any backing out, just him saying what we all know to be true, even the blindest HD fan knows that Mario will have far greater legs than MW2

Yes, just like Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario 64, oh wait...

You can't tell the difference between 2d and 3d?

And why does 3D or 2D matters? This is not 16 bit era anymore and Wii owners are not buying the same type of games NES and SNES owners did

When a system has so few interesting games on it of course NSMB Wii has a chance to sell as well as one of the best selling games of all time. With all the great game options for PS3 and 360 owners this holiday season MW2 actually has some competition on the HD consoles. NSMB Wii has none. Still it won't sell as well as MW2.

at first he said, NSMBW will outsell MW2, but now he saw the sales.. and now he knows it wont work as intended. Of course he needs an excuse for his not working Bash-marketing.

Poor Wii owners, duped into toys. You should spread the word, let the people know.

I know this is your poor attempt at sarcasm but the fact is the Wii has a very weak holiday lineup. Feel free to defend your gimmick system but I fear you have no response because you know I'm right. We have MW2, L4D2, Forza 3, Assassin's Creed 2, Tekken 6 for the 360. PS3 wise Uncharted 2, MW2, Tekken 6, Assassin's Creed 2 and possibly I'm forgetting some. Feels nice to be an HD console owner.
