I know No More Heroes is not gonna do well in Japan, but that is nothing new. The Japanese gaming market is crazy right now.

How well do you think it will sell and are you going to buy it? This is one of those games that publishers will look at as a test, if it does well they may reconsider putting more effort than ports and shovelware. I hope you guys are gonna get it as well. There is a prescence of wii owners at GS I hope you guys will support thisgame if you know its good.

I don't think it's going to sell well at all. Just doesn't seem like the type of game that would sell well, on any system.

I don't think it'll sell well just because...imo... it isn't that appealing. From what I've seen, it's pretty bland and repetitive. On top of that, Nintendo doesn't really put much into advertisement.

Definitely buying it. Lightsaber-type weapons and suplexes = instant purchase. Sadly, it'll probably sell poorly, like Killer 7. People seem to dislike good and unique games. :(

Probably bad or something around 300K total at the end of the Wii's lifespan. Hopefully it will sell a million so Suda 51 (I hope I spelt it right) make more games like this for the Wii and hopefully more company's will make more good games for the Wii like this, if it turns out to be a good game which IGN already said it has but yeah. Anyway I'll buy it and hopefully lots of people will to.

For real, man. Goichi Suda is a freaking GENIUS, and I want him to continue supporting Nintendo platforms.

Actually, as long as he keeps making games in general, I'll be happy ;)

Killer 7 never came close to a million, I can't see why this would do much better.

lets hopes so but judging on what we seen before its not likely, when a good game on the wii comes out nobody buys it and then people mostly other system fanboys or wii critics are all like theres no good games on the wii or that the games suck cuz they dont sell when we know thats not true

I really just hope that they do a good job on the game. As fresh and entertaining as Killer 7 was, it was lacking in a few categories. I hate to say it, but I doubt this game will get much higher than a 7.5 from gamespot.

I really do hope I'm wrong though. I want this game to succeed.

Not very.

While the blocky, retro graphics make me interested in the style of the game you're going to hear many other complaining about the look of the game.

Just as another poster said, Killer 7 didn't do that well on the Cube. Don't be surprised if No More Heroes doesn't shatter that record.

I don't think it will sell well, unfortunately. It seems like a niche game that will only appeal to a small group of people. I would like to have it do well, because it looks great, but I just don't think it will.

If it happens to be sequal worthy then i hope it sells enough for them to make one. If on the other hand its just a great game with no sequal chance then i dont care how much it sells as long as i get it and enjoy it. Japanese people seem to hate all things American (Xbox 360, GTA, Halo) so if this game is American or western themed, then they wont buy it (unless its whats cool over here, since they have all our fads later but to a larger crazier extent). But i hope this game is good and sequal worthy and i hope it sells well so there will be more mature themed games. I hate that everything on Wii seems to be all bright and colorful and very childish(playground game, ect.), even though the games are fun as hell.

I do think this game will sell exceptionally, but only if it is released a month before or after Brawl. If it gets released a week from SSBB, there's no shot it would sell. However, if the date was changed, there's no doubt in my mind that NMH will be among the million-sellers. Unisoft knows how to market Wii games to the proper audience. The Rayman Raving Rabbids and Red Steel commercials both were great and seeing as NMH is a better game than both of those, it'll have great content for a great commercial.

It's probably not going to sell that well, but it looks like it's getting hyped more than Killer7, so it may sell alright, but all in all I just hope it's good and I think it looks good.

I don't know what to expect sales wise, but I will most likely get it if it gets even just a average score. I really am enjoying Killer7 now, so if I have any excuse to buy No More Heroes I will.
