how quick before this outsells the wii u?

@ScroogeMcLz
im sorry that angers you. dont blame me blame nintendo.

@-KwB-
its not exactly doing well there either. lol!

@brucelebnd
when has a console game ever sold more or even remotely close to equal digitally than its boxed counterpart? face it the game tanked.

.

so it tanked... no suprise there.

Ill actually support this game & buy new day 1. Cant say the same for wwhd.

@Cohort
just to take a excerpt from your post

*Cohort said:
and are determined to push this idea that i really do care that much about digital sales, enough that I want to spend the next three days going back and forth like this... Sorry to disappoint you but I don't.*

ok lets see your comments before i said a word a single word to you since you claim not to care about digital sales:

*Cohort said:
Before everyone starts weighing in with their "expert analysis", please bear in mind:
"What should be noted of The Wonderful 101's 22nd place is that it won't include sales directly on the Wii U eShop, which did include a 30% off promotion for those that also purchased Pikmin 3 on the platform."*

*Cohort said:
His entire rant is based on half the story, digital sales are not included in the "all platform" chart, the eshop has a 30% offer if you bought pikmin and also bearing in mind that in general Nintendo's digital sales have been on the rise recently... this would suggest to me that MAYBE people might be more inclined to download the game?*

*Cohort said:
@GiftedGimp That doesn't include digital sales either does it?*

*Cohort said:
@GiftedGimp Exactly! That's what I was referring to, 14th is not bad at all and that's without digital sales as well..*

your right no need to continue this. you constantly contradicting yourself is getting old.

@Cohort
I'd love to get the Zelda bundle but I'd have to buy all my eshop games again and I'm not doing another system transfer...

system transfer? please explain.

@Cohort
your just in denial dude. digital sales for either game wont be anywhere near big enough to hypothetically boost the numbers as you want to believe regardless of the promo. your overestimation of the base that actually owns a wii u that would actually buy both pikmin & w101in the first place & buy them both digital at that is laughable.

your arguing with everyone that points out the lacking sales, making excuses why the game is selling poorly & comments like these trolling people:
Hi kirk..

Sure but like kirk, you've not played the full game either? Interesting...

I know I should let it go but it's incredibly annoying, it's right up there with people who form an opinion based purely from a headline without reading the full article .. You know what I mean?

you openly admitted you cant respect peoples opinions even after you were advised to just let it go. your trying too hard & looking horrible in the process

@thesilverbrick
Sorry, but digital sales would really help the overall total, considering a $30 discount if this game was downloaded in addition to Pikmin 3. I'd strongly bet that many of the people anticipating both this game and Pikmin 3 went the download route to save $30 and their purchases aren't reflected in the overall total. So, no, @Cohort is not grasping at straws.

if you think the very small % of people that bought pikmin digital that actually take part of that promotion will even make a dent on the sales charts your grasping for straws right with him. lol!

@Cohort

Sure, that small amount people that bought Pikimin are not going to bother taking up the 30% eshop offer?

fixed that for ya. try harder.

@Cohort
as if digital sales would really help. lol! your grasping for straws.

@Tra_Venous
Apparently Digital Foundry is kinda biased

care to share your reasoning behind this. any examples?

@SCAR392

really dude? really? smh...

wow wii u is inferior version. confirmed. smh

@SanderEvers
so ninja gaiden 3 RE is first party too since nintendo published it right? i laugh at you as i play it on my PS3.

@Kirk
agreed any resonable person knew this game would bomb. ill personally buy it @ a $20 price point.

@SanderEvers
oh i see. i hate wii controls. playing RE4 in hd with a ps3 controller was better for me.

@SanderEvers
ps3/360 hd versions are the best

i liked origins way better than any recent nintendo made 2d platformer, but it was on sale for $20 in less than a month of its release. ill wait for this one to drop.

lol! way to fail... twice.

lame

hero mode is lazy... im buying preowned

i cant wait for this to hit $20-30. that's when ill get it.

lol! wow. embarrassing

ill pass

lol! another one? smh

another game bombs. smh

soooo much rage. this is great.

rolf! awesome

@Rafie
sorry i like to base my statement off of fact and when i state my opinion i make sure its clear thats what im doing. you should try that i was in college when this game came out and our student center had hd tv's. I had one in my apartment. so did most of my friends. so saying hdtv's were scarce is your opinion. but that doesnt matter. ive said what i had to say & you have your opinion. so thats that.

whooo your rage finally hits the surface there you go speaking for everyone. im sorry you couldnt afford a nice tv then, but most people i knew had hd tv's back then. so i just destroyed your blanket statement. the whole point is not to sway your or anyone else's opinion. you made a false statement & i proved it wrong. its as simple as that. you can be as sore as your want. you can stand by your opinion. Fact is the xbox version looks better than the GC version. thats it. Accept it & move on.

@Rafie
wow you must be desperate to resorted to the 'kid" fallback. lol! ill play along. So now your changing you tune to " it's public opion" here is your original post:

"Rafie said:
They should have really made this for the Wii U. Link would have been boss. The GameCube's version was the best looking version"

Hmmm thats strange. that looks like you were stating that as fact. lol! you just got called out on it dude face it. you cant backtrack to try to save your argument now. Also the xbox version running at 780p makes it the best looking no matter how hard your trying to fight it. Its was never about what setups people had. thats a pitifull attempt on your part to deflect the fact that crushed your whole argument. i called you out on which one was the best looking overall. You said it yourself opinion is just that... opinion. Facts are facts. If you choose to ignore facts thats on you, but your opinion is still wrong try harder bro.

@Rafie
yeah the GC was received the best because link was considered the best guest character (i agree) but thats the only reason. You sure you did some digging around? Maybe be you should'nt have wasted your time cherry picking user reviews, because here is igns' head to head:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2003/08/26/soul-calibur-ii-head-to-head?page=4

The Xbox version was superior in the graphics department. Period its not debatable at all. User reviews dont mean anything they are opinion. The X box version running at 780p is fact. You should just face facts. Im bored with you now. move on...

@Rafie
it's not debatable. the xbox version was the only one to support 780p. you may want to get your eyes checked.

@Kaine_Morrison
you didn't point out anything. not a single link to back up anything you said. you cant get your story straight. first you told aviator EB was release because of multiple petition's. Then you back tracked and claimed iwata made the move solely based on miiverse requests. yet you provided no proof that either is the reason it was actually released. YOUR WORD ISNT PROOF. lol! you need to get that through your head kid.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvlB1uE5-ZQ

here is the iwata video. all he says is that after the announcement of EB in japan. he liked that passionate fans showed they wanted it in the west. he doesn't say that's the sole reason nintendo brought it over. it's pretty obvious they were going to release it regardless. nintendo like any other company cares about money first & foremost.

now post links to those 3 petition's you told aviator you took part in. ill wait.

@3Daniel

wrong. SC2 on GC sold the most out of the gate, but the PS2 version surpassed it in the long run.

@Rafie

actually the xbox version was the best looking version.

@Kaine_Morrison

like i thought. you cant prove anything. you were just talking out of your hind parts. smh.

@Kaine_Morrison

you didnt prove that any petition was the reason EB came to VC. all you did was claimed "Iwata said that that was the only reason that the game was released on the VC was a miiverse petition" but didnt even provide a link to him saying that or for that matter a link to any of the multiple petitions you claimed you were a part of. do you even know the definition of proof? lol! keep digging yourself into a hole cheif.

@Kaine_Morrison

stop trying so hard. you can't prove it dude.

i never thought id say this for a zelda game, but.... $20 or bust.

@wombatkidd

So you defense is "if the company said so it s true". sigh.... you cant even properly defend your own claims. i easily pointed out the holes in your "proof" on MH3U. your also still avoiding proving your claim of lego city being a smash hit. because we both know you cant. your boring me now. move on.

@wombatkidd

seriously? that's your proof? this quote says it all.

" its package sales were generally soft"

they said it not me. the sad part thats in japan by far their largest market. that pretty much means it was a critical hit. not a commercial hit. if it were a hit sales wise capcom would have proudly provided numbers. your telling me you didn't find that a bit odd? lol! now since that claim is debunked ill wait for the "proof" on your claim that lego city was also a smash hit.

btw you might want to get something for your cough

@Subie98
amen brother. im with you on that. im not going to support a game just because of who made it.

@wombatkidd
Monster Hunter (wii u version) & Lego city were smash hits? really? thats the first ive heard of that.

bad game. bad sales. what do you expect. thank god i traded it in a week after launch & got $43 store credit for that stinker.

@Banker-Style

correction. he upset's nintendo fanboys. the majority of nintendo gamers are not affected by his opinion.

i dont think that nintendo has lost its mojo just because the wii u is mediorce and looks like it will be for the foreseeable future. 3ds is on fire and its upcoming line up is very exciting.

looks far better than every wii u game on the horizon. cant wait to get it.

@Nintex

cant the same be said about nintendo games as of late? cookie cutter trash - minus a select few.
