Vortex566 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I think that NSMBWii will continue to sell and feature in the NPD top 10 for a lot longer then MW2. I am guessing a lot of people who wanted MW2 now have it and therefore we will see the numbers drop. You only have to look at the fact that Mario Kart Wii is still in the top 10 after how many months? Don't get me wrong MW2 will still sell but I have a feeling in the long run NSMBWii will sell more.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 11, 2009 Author Subscriber² Share Posted December 11, 2009 But then MW wasn't trying to target the Japanese market anyways, it's not that type of game for them. They like to eat up their rehashed Role playing games over and over. That's true, just like western gamers love to eat up their rehashed FPS games :p Looks like all parts of the world have weakspots for genres. I guess EU is Football/Racing games, America, FPS/American Football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted December 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted December 12, 2009 6million people bought mw2 on consoles eh? Wow, it's amazing that that many people can bear the completely unusable mess that is a gamepad in an fps. Oh go back to your cave in the 1990's please.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 12, 2009 Author Subscriber² Share Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) 6million people bought mw2 on consoles eh? Wow, it's amazing that that many people can bear the completely unusable mess that is a gamepad in an fps. KB/M is much better, but you PC maniacs love to overstate the difficulty of a controller. There's a completely level playing field, minus the 2% of people that might have custom controllers... unlike on the PC where there's a range of mouses, some more sensitive than others. What that means is even the weakest players can end up on a good streak against the pros. Even I can play FPS games relatively easy and they've never ever been my favourite genre on consoles. Only FPS games I've loved have been Half Life 1/2, TFC, TF2, Dues Ex, System Shock 2, Bioshock and Clive Barkers Undying. Anyway the newest BonusRound episode gets the Wii's issue perfectly, just WTF have Nintendo offered us in terms of new mascotts in the last x amount of years? Both Sony and MS, more so Sony, have spat out lots of new IPs/Characters this generation, which means new games, where as usual Nintendo just remake a new addition to every franchise they've had going since I was in diapers. Doesn't mean they're not good games, but it's what makes Nintendo's lineup look pretty terrible for people like us on Neowin, as for the most part the new IPs 3rd party developers have tried to give the Wii suck hard. As ironic as it sounds, Nintendo need a bit more innovation in their software lineups for gamers like us. While everyone still explodes their pants everywhere at Mario, a plumber who should have a zimmer now, where's the new characters/mascots Nintendo?
