wellmohh2 iscoming out right when galaxy is coming out and now that it has got a 9.5 (AMAZING) and has gotten great reviews, this game will sell like crazy,....which is mostly likely to take mohh2 sales. i'm planning on buying mohh2 but galaxy first, and maybe mohh2 around christmas. it is most likely to get big sales later but not around launch date with SMG coming out. soooo will that mean there won't be too many people playing online??

If Mario didn't come out then this game still wouldn't sell very well. People (myself included) are getting sick of these World War 2 shooters.

Online play and the arcade adds some value. But it is just another, check that, yet another WWII game, and it doesn't look that good visually if you ever played a WWII shooter on the XBOX 360. I dread more muddy brown textures that make up ravaged cities in any WWII game on any platform.

And for anyone who has a 360 the 32 player online is nothing special.

I hope it sells well and I will rent it, but I have my doubts about this games success. At least the controls sound phenomenal according to IGN.

I think that it wont have great first week numbers but a great online FPS for the Wii is what a lot of people are waiting for so if those people that do get it at first say good things about online then I think plenty of people will get it down the road.

All online FPS lovers will HAVE to get MoHH2 when it's released so i don't think it wouldn't sell a lot because of SMG xD. Im definitely getting MoHH2 when it's released.

Have you seen GS game play videos for this game? It's like they are purposely trying to make it look lame. They can't aim, turn, and keep dieing all the time. I think it won't sell very well because most people looking for 32-player online FPS went elsewhere a while ago.

Then why do you guys care if it sells well or it doesn't? Does it lower it's quality? No... I buy games to play them not for showing off how much it sold.

Well Nintendog, sales of this game very much will affect us... there is the direct effect of people online but thats minor to the non-direct effect of how other publishers will view this game. From what I hear this game has the best controls of not only any FPS on the Wii (yes the guys from IGN say the controlls are even better than Metroid) but it also has a huge online mode. If this game doesnt sell well developers will be less likely to follow this model. Every time we have one of these games that are a "trail blazer" game like this with its online mode or Zack and Wiki with its fantastic puzzles/use of the wiimote, it matters to us very much if people buy it because we want more of these to be made.

Honestly this game will sell well regardless. Sure the second greatest game ever is coming out the same week, but this is MoH is just another AAA title coming out next week. Galaxy coming out will definitely hinder some sales of this and other games for sure, but just because CoD4 is coming out doesn't mean people won't be buying Assassin's Creed. MoH is a huge title for the Wii, and while it is another WWII shooter (and I'm sick of em too) it does look top notch and one of many great Wii titles let alone great titles across all platforms. Out of the gate it won't fly as fast with Galaxy coming but there ae plenty of people clamoring to get it who can easily afford both games. Myself being one of those. Plus, in time, by the holiday's it could be seeling very well after the MArio buzz has died.

I see your point but I don't really think it spells doom.

People will buy both SMG and MOHH2, and maybe RE:UC... I expect RE:UC to get really good sales actually.

I hope it does sell well. That way even better FPS could be released for the Wii in the future--especially from 3rd parties. This will be tough, but not for me. I'm getting Galaxy and MOH Heroes 2!

Most people will end up getting both if the person is interested in online play, even if galaxy didn't come out, it still wouldn't sell all that great.

I'm passing Galaxy for MOHH2 and RE:UC. Mario games took a dive for me after Super Mario Brothers for the SNES.
