Rock Revolution is out: 2 copies sold for the month on wii version.

"Unfortunately, October was not nearly as kind to th on wii third instrument-based rhythm game released during the month, Rock Revolution. According to NPD figures, Konami's critically savaged game sold less than 3,000 units across the entirety of the country during the month. According to the data, the game sold 1,442 for the 360, 816 for the PS3, 666 for the DS, and only two copies for the Wii."

Wii Music may not have exploded out of the game but I am pretty sure that gamespot article said it sould 80,000.

That is the funniest thing I have heard today.

:? I don't get what you're saying. The game came out 3 days ago, and saying that it sold 2 copies before its release or what??

And the funny part is the Wii version came out in November and sold two copies in October. I'd say thats something else right there.

:? I don't think I follow you. You're saying It came out 3 days ago yet still sold a couple copies from October, before it ever came out??

Anyway,I wonder whats bad about it though,it doesn't look any good but I don't see how it's getting 4.0's.

Come Christmas morning, there are going to be at least two very unhappy people.thebisonx

Did anyone actually read the article?  The Wii version isn't even out yet, and it didn't break down the sales across the platforms.

Still, I think 2 would be an optimistic sales goal for this game.

The article doesn't break down the numbers. It even says the Wii version will com out next month. :|

Originally, the article read as wiifan quoted it. The paragraph after that one said, "Requests for verification of the extremely suspect Wii figure had not been answered by NPD or Konami as of press time. However, it must be noted that NPD data is from a survey of retailers, so it's likely that a number that low is some sort of statistical mistake."

Then the article was updated: "[UPDATE] Suspect indeed: The number for the Wii version of Rock Revolution was so low because it didn't actually arrive in stores until November 11, whereas all three other versions went on sale October 15. Whether it exceeds its siblings' sales will be seen next month. For October, the game generated just over $132,000 in sales."

Then, that update was removed, all evidence of any error from the original report was dropped down the memory hole, and the text of the article was altered to: "According to NPD figures, Konami's critically savaged game sold less than 3,000 units on the 360, PS3, and DS combined. The Wii version will be released next month."
