LOL 2.5 million is nuts, game will bomb, 500 k LTD.



Around the Network

Isn't kingdom hearts the only game featuring mickey mouse to sell over 1 million?

Unless the ones on SNES were killer apps? Which I can't even remember the names of them.



I'm Unamerica and you can too.

I can't find sales data on all of them, but it doesn't seem any of the games he was in prior to Kingdom Hearts were big hits. They were fairly throwaway license games though.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

www.xnagg.com/zombieasteroids/publish.htm

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

I had one of them, the one with some witch and you jumped through tree's, it was advertised with fantasia when it was released.

It was good but crappy compared to Mario World.

Would you care to make a wager?

I'll bet it surpasses 500k within six months of launch. Winner controls the loser's avatar for a month. What say you?

The Castle of Illusion was pretty damn pimping



Khuutra you may just lose your toon ganon avatar.

Keep in mind, other than ubisoft no other third party company has correctly and passionately marketed their software on Wii and it's audience. Then keep in mind that it's a non kingdom heart mickey game.

Never mind that it isn't made by Nintendo so consumers are already going to be looking at it's price before they think of trusting that it will fulfill the function of entertainment.

Keep in mind it's Warren Spector, and it's an AAA title so they're going to actually market it.

Does anyone realize how this game has come about? They went to Warren Spector specifically, and bought his company out for this title. Does it make sense they'd then send this game out to die? Not to mention the stated goals of re-branding Mickey Mouse... as it's entirely Disney's game, I expect at least as much advertising as Kingdom Hearts.

Not breaking 500k in 6 months? That's insane. Even de blob made it in 15 weeks! Ubisoft is far from being the only third party company with hits, Disney themselves have 2 million sellers (High School Musical, Hannah Montana), with 2 more soon to add to the list (HSM3, Disney Sing It).


I must say, I'm amazed at how much doubt this game is getting. This isn't The Conduit, Madworld or some other niche game we're talking about here. This is freakin Mickey Mouse! Disney! Warren Spector!

I'll be bookmarking this thread for later...
