the only thing that I REALLY hate about SPM is how Treehouse gave it yet another internet nerd-aware translation and people praise it as being funny and clever.

portal is clever. SPM is self-indulgent.

I just think SPM is a game with an uneven difficulty curve, less personality than each of its predecessors, and extremely sharp high and low points. It's text heavy, but that doesn't bother me because I expected that going in. The replacement of random battles with..."jump on enemies" seemed kinda dumb. It simplified the RPG elements and the platforming just wasn't there.

those treehouse douchenozzles are writing for an audience of roughly three. two of whom are chris kohler. one of these days miyamoto is going to find out that some snarky americans are filling mario games with unfunny references to videogame message boards. and on that day his tiny yellow cock will flesh itself in certain quivering nerd sphincters

Paper mario was really boring. I wasn't sure whether it was a RPG or Platformer for dummies. Either way, it seemed to have been made for dummies.

The puzzles were challenging, but the monsters didn't do too much damage. It wasn't boring at all though. I got up to 4-3 or 4-4 I think and ended up lost in one of the levels.

Pretty quickly. If it was a third as long as it is, I'd probably think of it fondly. I bitch about games today being too short, but being too short would have solved the problems of SPM.

I kinda liked SPM though. Definitely the art and how the game fucks with you at points.

according to hyp's kotaku link, in september 360 had the majority of software sales (obviously) with 74% of the sales, wii had 17%, and PS3 had 9%. Doesn't Wii have like 6X the number of consoles than PS3?

360 SKATE ELECTRONIC ARTS 5 175K

Although hyp is pry the only person on here to care about this...I've got a couple of questions...

1) Is this enough copies sold to guarantee a sequel?

2) If so, where should I go to burn an effigy so that EA doesn't start f'ing this game up?

With the PS3 game, it's over 200k. That has to be a successful debut.

is 200k combined units considered a success these days?

MCD · « **Reply #92 on:** October 19, 2007, 01:38:43 PM »

Well, according to Namco, anything less than 500k is not a success for next gen games.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #93 on:** October 19, 2007, 01:40:43 PM »

200K means about $10 million and I think the average game last gen would cost $5 million but it's supposed to be 2-3X more expensive this gen I think.

edit: oh.

Neither game had any form of marketing push. I'm glad ES bombed, what an embarassing game.

MCD · « **Reply #106 on:** October 19, 2007, 08:00:25 PM »

But still, BD at least sold 300k in japan by now, and i am pretty sure US+EU sales will push it near 500k.

should be good like that, Viva Pinata sold something like this worldwide and Rare were happy with it.
