30k in 4 days??? THERE'S NO HARDCOARZ ON WIIIII

ITS NOT ENOUGH

This is inaccurate. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggles actually sold around 40,000 in the first four days. And people call it a failure after FOUR days? Give it some times to sell.

It did take 100 weeks for the first one to reach half a million copies.

Also in comparison, it is being picked up much faster than the first one was able to do in 7 weeks.

Although I was only expecting the second game to sell the same number of copies as the first one, more or less.

wait...this IS good right? i know how horrible the original sold, but 40K in 4 days sounds great to me considerin the type of game it is and it havin no public advertisin.

lol RollingSilver is being a successful troll anyway according to VGChartz it sold 41k in the first 4 days lol.. either 1 of those sites are over tracked lol, tatsonoku sales are good, but i am disappointed with the Europe sales.. 10k first week? wtf? i was hoping 50k or something.. well they only stocked about a few copy's over here, i was lucky to find 1 damn copy.. for an anticipated game on the wii retails really know how to fuck up sales don't they? lol

For a Wii game this is not that bad, considering the possibility of lifelong sales. Remember that with a non-HD console you have lower dev costs.

Actually, No More Heroes hasn't even reached half a million, but that was a good guess. I'm sure the sequel will break that.

- this forum is soundin like MLD .
sales = how good a game is .?

@KidZillah
Sales = a bigger possibility for a sequel.

1: Why thank you
2: I think 41k in the first 4 days in pretty good considering that it sold more than the first game in that time range. I can only speculate that Desperate Struggle will make at least twice more bank than its predecessor.
3: Correct me if I'm wrong, but retailers don't get a lot of shipped copies for games do they? It's silly to say that everybody just ignored the game.
4: Sorry if I don't understand that one. Can you rephrase that for me?

Yeah, cause the best selling game of all time just isnt a wii game

Seriously, you want to piss around over fairly arbitrary stuff like that? You really are from the IGN forums.

People like to talk about the success and failures of ideas, even in non-gaming related issues. Toyota being the largest car maker or Microsoft having a monopoly in OSes or Google beating the crap out of Yahoo and crap like that. People are attracted to popularity.

Shouldn't this be true about Tekken6, F.E.A.R., Virtua Fighter 5 and BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger for the Xbox360?

No, virtua fighter 5 kinda sucks. alot.

Naw, it was ok. I like El Blaze

It had about as much critical acclaim as Desperate Struggle and Tatsunoko vs Capcom
