I don't know if people actually care about Ninja Warrior / Sasuke spoilers, but just in case:spoiler (click to show/hide)[youtube=560,345]o49TwmMxMYc[/youtube][close]It's awesome to see elaborately designed obstacles courses get destroyed by some beast at climbing shit.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=385873*Pacther lays down the truth about 'traditional' 3rd party games and the Wii*Ninthings: "Well maybe they should make some more games like RE4. That sold pretty well. If all 3rd party games were like RE4 then they wouldn't have this problem. RE4 RE4 RE4 RE4 RE4"Jeez. I'm getting tired of RE4 being used as the 3rd party messiah. That game is like 3 years old now and the market has changed since its release.
Advertising and quality are the oldest excuses in the book. From my Segafag days, reading forums like Blast City, every single significant Dreamcast game would have been a multimillion seller if there would have been some advertising for the games.
Interestingly (at least to me), the six third party titles in the top 20 were EA Sports Active, Lego Star Wars, Madden 10, Tiger Woods 10, Deca Sports (?), Game Partyand Rock Band 2.
I found it fascinating that the highest ranked Guitar Hero title on the Wii in 2009 was GH World Tour at #30. I also found it fascinating that games like Just Dance, Cabela's Big Game Hunter, Deal or No Deal, The Biggest Loser and Jillian Michaels 2009 all finished ahead of the highest ranked GH game.
Came out on PC day and date huh?Well, that explains it then.That would explain the huge ass image too.
And wiitards wonder why third parties don't try.QuoteInterestingly (at least to me), the six third party titles in the top 20 were EA Sports Active, Lego Star Wars, Madden 10, Tiger Woods 10, Deca Sports (?), Game Partyand Rock Band 2.QuoteI found it fascinating that the highest ranked Guitar Hero title on the Wii in 2009 was GH World Tour at #30.

They were pretty good boards but Blast City became unraveled late 2000.

Credit where it's due, for a two years later fourth version of a game ported onto a console that was already BC with the game, it's a phenomenal number.

re4 also sold into a game-starved market to hardcores who had not yet accepted the wii's destiny

Things have changed since then.

Unfortunately, it sits pretty much by itself as a success of that magnitude on the Wii, which makes it a piss-poor example to throw out there in any discussion about third party sales.
Quote from: AdmiralViscen on January 27, 2010, 08:09:33 PMOh, it must have had great legs then. I remember Nfans claiming it sold out for a few months to explain why it fell off the NPD.But yea, still an isolated example. And 900k games are a dime a dozen on the 360. I'm not convinced that the people who bought RE4 still own Wiis, or at least, buy games for it.There are 30 third party games above RE4's total on the 360, so yes, the difference is massive and frankly unignorable unless you're trying hard to escape reality.As archie and prole and now you have said, RE4 came out at a different time. There were people with Wiis who like those sorts of games that hadn't bought another console yet. That crowd got fed up at a certain point and bought systems that actually had an abundance of the games they were looking for, and if you have one of those consoles, Wii games really lose a lot of their appeal.I think the biggest mystery around is why the few stragglers who only own a Wii and want these kinds of games haven't done the smart thing and bought an HD console yet. They're not exactly expensive these days. Surely that's got to beat whining and constant disappointment, yes?
