Those sales make me sad. But I also believe that Ubisoft should of marketed it way better. I saw no TV ads and a few website ads I saw arent enough.

People are waiting that price drop to happen. I just read an interview with Suda 51 that NMH is more popular in Europe than USA and Rising Star is going to market this game better than Ubisoft.

can't blame the wii audience... nobody really knew about it. It seems the "higher quality" the game is, the least likely a company will advertise. EA though DS:E was amazing, then dropped it with nothing. same with Ubi and this (and probably RS2). Stupid Ubi, now we have to hear them cry like a bunch of 4 year olds who don't realize their own stupidity...

this game doesn't deserve goo sales. No multiplayer, crappy graphics, repetitive, tedious and
dull gameplay. I had the first one and stop paying after 30mins and i won't buy this one becuase its the same crap. when the price gets to $20, i might buy it, but its not worth full price.

"too many casual Wii owners"?
Explain how the Call of Duty games have good brand recognition on Wii and go on to sell 1 million +? What about Monster Hunter 3? Yes I agree Wii has many "casual owners", but that doesn't mean a "hardcore" game can't get anywhere on the platform. It takes actual effort. You can't just throw a new IP or franchise out to die without telling anyone about it.

Just another 3rd party release for 3rd parties to complain about and bring up in "analysis reports". The fact that it was never promoted in any sense of the word and even a video gamer and web crawler like me forgot it even came out (which is pathetic) won't make a difference what-so-ever. It sold less then 10 million, ubi will throw a hissie fit and suda will move to another console where we will see millions of dollars worth of commercials and promotions.

One thing people fail to realize is retailer preference. I'm not talking about gameshops, I'm talking about the Wal-Marts & the Best Buys & such. They stock games which they "think" will sell (to varying degrees of success). Sometimes that means we won't see many of these kinds of games at all on shelves or at least very little for a short period of time. My local Wal-Mart only stocked 5 of NMH2 & I happened to be the 1st buyer of the game in my store. It's not so much advertising (how do you really advertise this anyway?), it's visibility on the shelves. Nintendo promoted this on their Nintendo Channel! It's not ads, it's visibility + actual customer demand. Regardless NMH2 is excellent.

it would of been hard for this game to sell alot, No More Heroes 2 is release on sale but its not like Ubisoft cares… what ad campaign exists for one of the anticipated games on the Wii in 2010? None…unless a banner on GameFAQS counts as an ad. So, Ubisoft, what was the point of picking this game up if you were just going to ignore it and make gamers find it on their own? Most of the Wii audience still pays attention to traditional media. With all the great reviews Desperate Struggle is getting, it shouldn’t be hard to whip together a TV ad and tell people about a great game.

Yea aside from some in store advertising, and some Nintendo Channel/website trailers, there has been no marketing push for this at all. Even the first had a larger marketing push for this one.

Definitely quite sad to see that, but as I've said before, I'm done with 3rd parties actually trying to push their big games and instead just happy that I personally get them.

Don't be surprised of how much the game sells in its first week, because Ubisoft dropped the ball on this one. They should have advertise the hell out of this game, the reviews were there, but, not Ubisoft.

Well after finally beating Mass Effect 2, I was able to play this game for about 3 hours today and it is just amazing. Ah reminds me of why I loved the first one so much. Just so unique and SO PUNK. Like the beginning of the game said, "Punx not dead".

too bad the town was removed, it could be cool to add some more freedom in town instead of removing

however, the 50 bosses idea is awesome, and the graphics are mush better

I am loving this game!! One thing though is that they really didn't have cutscenes that showed all of the bosses motivations. The bosses in this game only want to beat Travis "the legend". I wish Suda took a few seconds to flesh out the bosses back stories.

The more games like this are released, where WiiMote can be used as a katana, for example, and better than just action games, some RPG's with WiiMote melee weapons fight, the more likely becomes I buy a Wii when the price is right for me.

It is slowly climbing on Amazon behind Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom. I have been tracking it for the past week on Amazon it has gone from ~430 to ~215 in one week, with absolutely nothing in the way of advertising on TV or on Amazon.

Yes it is worrying that it is not on the charts. I still expect the opening week in the Americas to be around 50k. If early reviews come, that might increase. Others should get an opening week of around 35k. Japanese, if advertised properly, should also get a 20k opening week. 100k opening week combined is good. With a stable price for at least the first 10 weeks, The game could see around 250-300k in the first 10 weeks. That would be really good. O course, then it is up to the legs to decide whether this is a success or not. I want this to completely outsell the original. Completely deserves it.
