People who think this game will sell 5M are seriously deluding themselves. There is no comparison to sales of Mario & sonic wii fit. Sales of Wii music so far have been frontloaded and steeply declining. Word of mouth is killing this game. Sales for wii fit and mario & sonic increased with time because of positive word of mouth. It's last chance to do something big is in second week sales in Others. If it goes up or holds steady it might do something big in the territory. If it shows a big decrease this game is going no where fast. Might not even make 2M lifetime worldwide. Message | Report |

I really don't think this will catch on. Compare the first five weeks of sales for Wii Music with Wii Sports and Wii Play. I understand that casual titles sell for a longer period of time, but that's because they're simple fun and catch on at parties and stuff. Problem is that this game isn't all that fun and really it's kind of embarrassing to play. And yes, I have played it. I'm guessing 1.5 million. It won't bomb by any means, but it's not going to drive huge profits like some of Ninty's other properties. Message | Report |

You know, I do get rather tired of the near-endless "testimonials" against this game from people who explicitly go into the experience intending to hate it. I mean really, that's like going up to a mirror expecting to hate what you see. Of course you're going to hate what you see, that's what you expected. If anything, I'd say this game is just showing how much of a gap there is between the "old" style of gamer and the "new" style of gamer.

This seems to remind me of the PS3 vs WII battle. Back then nobody waas giving the WII a chance and said the PS3 is the future. Fast forward to 2008, the wii is still the system to get and the PS3 is only god for an inexpensive Blu-Player. AT LEAST THaT IS WhAT i USE IT FOR.This showsn how passionate people can be when it comes to vdeo game choices.

Just look at this WALL any owner including myself find it to be a fun game.

For all you guys questioning the place of WII musiuc, just think of it as Guitar Her/Rock band light. The difference being you are making your own Air music, ot following a beat of preset songs and adding your special touch to these Tunes. While the above is about perfection and playing the instruments like they are meant to be played for each selected song. While the first weeks total won't blow anyone away only real gamers knew it was coming out, the promotional blitz started on release day and hasn't slowed. As for final totals, Wii Fit owners will want to explore more opportunities to use the balance board and the drums potion gives you many options to have a cool jam sesion, but take the lessons to play first,it willbe a lot more fun when you are doing it right. This game should easily be a 3-5 mil world wide sellat, the only questions are; Does Nintendo Flood the market or do they make it a must have because of SHORTAGES? We have all seen how the FIT exploded between word of mouths abd shortages, hese shoortage issue has to the WII Fit closing in on 10mil I hear thre arguements aboit the top three WII gamed coming with a add-on, ; I don't think that would be the issue at all, It will sell because it is entertaining. Tis game wirks great with the motio sesor that it truly feels like you have a drum set/piano/guitar/trumpet right there with you. While no RB or GH player would want to step down and play air instruments Tgey probably would if they knew the release date sales some stores were having. As for me I have to give this game a B+ or A-, The A would be on family night when everyone is trying to play to Daydream Believer. The only fly is the limited nuber of songs, hopefully an update or evern extrs song disc will be in it;s future. Message | Report |
