What I expcted before. Europe will not be the head center for games like this, It will have to survive on America. I mean I live in Sweden and I no freinds which have a Wii. Its hard to hype a Wii game in the way you can hype a 360 game when you only have freinds which have a 360. Message | Report |

I think we should wait for this game to get to Week 10 and then make decisions as to whether this is a fail or not. If this gets to 300k+ by Week 10 then this game is not a fail and if it gets less then that then it is a fail. Consider this, HotD2 and 3 Boom Blox and Cod:WaW all had really terrible sales in the first 2 weeks. They all are near 1 million and will sell a million eventually while CoD already sold a million. This will sell good so just chill and wait. Message | Report |

You can't find Wii owners at fault when they don't find a particular game interesting. Blame developers who don't take the time to actually research and see what type of game will sell or why buyers like particular games. Just because they put out a violent game doesn't mean those that want more hardcore games should buy it just because. I only buy games that I find interesting not because they find someone elses definition of "Mature". Message | Report |

I don't think the reason for this game not selling is the fact that its a "hardcore" game or even an M rated game as jeffrey is rambling about. Remember, RE4 has done really well on Wii, so the fanbase DOES exist for the Wii. I think the game has two big things going against it. One, it's a new IP, and two, the game is way too short. I beat it in like 4 hours. That's not to say it's a bad game, it just left a lot more to be desired. Message | Report |

More proof that hardcore games do not sell on Wii. This is not just random at this point, this is a proven trend. Only well known remakes, ala RE4, and Nintendo games do well on this platform. It's safe to say that the hardcore audience is almost entirely buying PS360 games. It's just a fact. The hardcore seem willing to cross over to buy Nintendo games for the Wii, but that's it.

First off if anyone is RENTING this game then we can thank you for not supporting this quality 3rd party hardcore title. For anyone thinking about getting this game I can agree that the game is just insanely fun. There are a variety of ways to play the game and the levels and enemies are quite different from section to section. The sub bosses in each level are my favorite part since they just keep popping up until you fight the boss. The boss fights are fun, challenging, and really help put closure to the level. All enemies including bosses are so detailed that half the time you will want to just stare at the screen in awe ;) Music is different and original but really fits the theme well. Voice acting is very well done and the story is actually really good for a brawler action game. The controls are solid and do not get in the way. You can play the game slowly by racking up combos on single enemies or you can just go buck wild and rip through enemies as fast as possible. At first the game can be slow and easy for veteran gamers but the later levels start to kick up the challenge. Also after you beat the game you unlock more weapons and a Hard Mode which is quite challenging. The graphics and style of the game are unbelievable and very easy to follow. The pictures do not do the game justice, it looks even better in motion which is hard to believe since it looks amazing in the screens. Finally the game is just a good time ripping through mobs of people. Toss in the great sub boss fights, bloodbath challenges, and unique boss fights and you have a great game. Well worth the price!

Sonic and the Black Knight outdid it week 2 and people say it is a mediocre game. Hell Penguin Club almost sold more its second week and I saw no one hyping it up (Don't give me no BS handheld or different genre). Madworld may sell more second week in EU if it wasn't released in some areas but it isn't going to be amazing. Legs might take it to a mil if they do in fact last but this should be a 2mil+ seller just because the catchy name and violence. In all truth I'm jealouse that this only came out for the Wii. This game should have been a multiplatform release for major sales. Good luck with the sub-par profits Sega! Message | Report |

Most places near me didnt even get the game until the 14th. I wonder how many other areas didnt have this game at all for the 13th. Anyway I knew sales of this game would be lower than most expected. When I went looking for Hotd last month I was told be 3 different Gamestops that if I wanted a PS3 or Wii game it was best to preorder because they only get 2-3 copies beyond the preorder amount. I did Preorder Madworld and it was the last copy in the store when I finally had the time to go by and pick it up. Message | Report |

This game will do nothing in Japan either. This isn't a Suda51 game so 500,000 LTD copies won't be successful enough for Sega. The advertising had to cost a pretty penny as well, especially on highly viewed stations. The only reason I knew VC existed even was because of internet which = free advertisement from fans. Tell me I'm wrong (I don't care). I live in the real world where great movies can sell like shit but movies like Twilight could sell millions and millions. Same thing goes for games. I wanted KZ2 to sell 1mil+ EU alone first week but it failed. The Halo killer didn't even kill Resistance. It will sell more than Resistance 2 but legs can only get you so far. Basically people want to think Forza will outsell GT5. LBP will outsell Mario. GTA on DS will outsell GTA on PS360. We all now the true facts but we ignore and turn a blind eye. Message | Report |

@MontanaHatchet I respect you and all but this comment really wasn't toward you. I just laugh at all the over predictions made as I knew it would never sale these numbers. I would have loved to be proved wrong but I heard more bashing of this game outside of VGchartz (The real world) than praising. I'm sorry but even if this game does sell more than VC for PS3 I still think it is a fail. Extremely more niche genre of JRPG with 0 advertising in US and smallest userbase. Niche art style mixed with violence(Which Sells) and just as many commercials as Street Fighter IV or RE5 on TV + highest userbase. I honestly think 1st week sales are fail. My opinion it may be to some of you but that isn't good at all. Flame me all you want but Sega better be praying for some legs cause it is the only thing that can save it. It may have legs and be saved but my gut feeling says no it isn't going to happen. If I'm wrong then I'm glad to be wrong. We will see. Message | Report |

MadWorld was a shoe-in for this category. Not only is it the most uniquely-presented game on the Wii, it's one of the most uniquely-presented games on any system right now. Its stark black and white visual style was a hell of a lot harder to achieve than you'd imagine – making sure the environment and objects were always readable and distinct for the player, and making sure that the world always looks interesting in black and white is no mean feat. Super stylish, with the constant bloodletting the perfect punctuation point on the rest of the presentation. Message | Report |

This game is probably gonna sell more than No more heroes and stop somewhere in the 650k. This is going to be a big sucess for what it is, whatever one will say. Message | Report |

@Gilgamesh: Oh please. Call of Duty World At War sold a million recently. Besides, are we even sure how well Madworld is gonna do in its lifetime sales? Besides, the game was released late in the week and half of the retailers didn't get the game til a few days later. 60k is actually decent. Message | Report |

I already prepared myself for disappointing sales since awesome games from small developers like Clover or Platinum Games never sell well. Its ashame since this game deserves well over a million sales. I am happy that it is showing up in the list of Best Sellers at ebgames.com. I would strongly suggest everyone show their friends about this game and encourage them to support this quality title. Also don't forget to write Platinum games and let them know what you liked/disliked and what you want to see in the sequel!! Message | Report |

This game deserves a million sales but I am tired of being optimistic for the Wii owners. Realistically this game will get around 500k max and that is disappointing since it deserves much more. I personally took my time with the game and it took me around 6 hours to beat the game. It also depends if you have it on the unlockable HARD mode. I don't think it is repetitive since the levels and bosses are so varied. But everyone has their opinion, I just wish more people would buy the game and then form one ;) Message | Report |

So we all can make a difference and help the Wii game library become more diversified by spreading the word about new and quality games like MadWorld.

This title it being produced by Platinum games who are made up of ex devs from many well known studios. The main one being 'Clover Studios' who produced amazing titles like Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and also worked with Capcom on Resident Evil 4, among other titles as well. So these guys KNOW what they are doing! The devs decided to use a black and white design that is inspired by american comic books. They did this because the game is all about brutality and they felt having blood red be the only color, helped emphasize this aspect. If you watch the game in motion, you will be blown away at how stylized and amazing it looks. The game is a 3-D brawler type similar to Final Fight or Double Dragon and story is about a Death Match sport (similar to Running Man). The main character, Jack, has a chainsaw on one of his arms and can deal out deadly linkable combos and moves. Another big part of the combat is being able to use the environment. One example, is ramming a sign post through your opponents head which then allows you to do a variety of other moves (like throwing them into a wall of spikes). Throw in some great voice acting like Greg Propes, John DiMaggio, and Steve Blum. Along with some solid controls that do not overuse the motion and this game looks absolutely fantastic. Finally the team has already said that there will be sequels in the works if this game sells well! Message | Report |

This game looks very good. I was afraid there would be no advertising for it (as much as most Wii hardcore games get, while Halo got a Mountain Dew flavor I never ONCE saw a single commercial for NMH/ CoD/MoH or Metroid 3), but I at least see a huge poster at my local Gamestops for it along with the other games for pre-order. Why doesn't wii have ANY commercials for games outside of the "wiisports/fit/play" games? Honestly, I DONT see them not even during the Holidays. I saw a Mario Kart one once, but why don't these games get adverts? There are trailers online for games, do they ever reach anyone not sitting at a computer? Message | Report |
