I bought a Wii back in 2007, and haven't used it since then, same goes for the 360.

Yeah it's too bad that a game that had so much effort put into it, didn't sell very well. Unfortunately, that's the nature of releasing a game of that nature on a console that caters to casuals. No doubt people here who love Nintendo will attempt to argue with me and try to point various other points, but Capcom's Masachika Kawata says himself that an unrecognized game like MadWorld didn't sell much on the system. Resident Evil is known around the world, but a new game like MadWorld didn't do so well. I hope that unique, mature games eventually get recognized, but the overwhelming casual presence on the system might ultimately preclude such games from reaching true success.

MadWorld didn't do well at its release perhaps, but by now the game has almost sold 200.000 units. That's quite something, especially when you consider it didn't release in Japan!! So people should stop whining about hardcore games and the Wii. House of the Dead: Overkill sold well eventually and so will MadWorld, The Conduit and any other hardcore game.

I am sick of people quoting the same number from a month ago. Everyone forgets that was one npd report from not even an entire month worth of sales data. The same went for the GTA: chinatown numbers. People keep acting like madworld will never sell another disk after it's first month. Hopefully the past month worth of jabbering about the 66,000 estimation got the niche gamers who were interested to pick it up. I mean it is still a darn good game.

Hardcore Wii gaming.....lolz
