I think people are forgetting that The Conduit is already the 4th best selling Wii game at Gamestop(preorders only. Now THATS impressive.) and it already sold out at Amazon.com

HistoricalSD

I think you are forgetting how huge Halo 3 was...

people are often exaggerating the hype halo 3 had. it was only a special FPS for xbox 360 owners. otherwise, it wasn't as huge hit to the gaming as a whole.

You have jokes.

The Conduit was only ever hyped because the Wii is practically Shooterless. The game looks poor and I'm guessing not many people have heard of it outside this board and other forums.

No it I believe it will do the opposite. I think the sales are going to be poor considering the history of shooters on the Wii console

I vote that youre a trolling fakeboy.

shed more tears.

That made no sense and simply brought more attention to the fact that your a trolling fakeboy.

the fact is that i'm not, so keep weeping about something false.

you're probably just a jealous sheep that are terrified to see the results.

I still don't see how one person from another forum who was laughed at there constitutes people thinking Conduit could outsell Halo 3, nor any justification from you with real proof that Conduit could do so.

i hope the conduit is a good game that sells well. im itching ofr a wii FPS so i will probably be picking it up. but no..it wont outsell halo3 at launch and is highly highly unlikely to outsell H3 over its shelf life. if it breaks a million over its life though then i think HV and sega will be very happy.

Well actually Call of Duty World at War sold quite well on the Wii. Not any where near the PS3 or 360 version, but still pretty well. More than enough to make the port worth it. But I doubt the Conduit is going to sell any where near that.

It's a very hyped game indeed, you're correct, but not the most hyped game on 360 let alone this generation.

Hey, as of March 2009, Halo 3 had sold 5.9 million in the US. According to NPD results.

That's not even worldwide, or counting all retailers, and those numbers are amazing.

Then what is the most hyped game. Because I haven't seen any other like halo. what other game has had t-shirts, power drinks. Mountain dew covers so on and so forth?

Halo 4 is the only game that can shatter that record period.

None the less The Conduit should still be a very successful FPS on Wii.

Your talking about the 360. It is the MOST hyped game. But tell me the games you mentioned did they have the millions of dollars of advertising Halo 3 had?

Pokemon, Mario, Megaman, Final Fantasy, Donkey Kong. Plenty of games. I mean, just look at Pokemon. An anime running at over five hundred episodes, over ten theatrical movies, fast food promotions with Subway, Mcdonalds, KFC, Burgerking, various clothes lines, Pokemon edition Gamecube, N64, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, DS and DS Lite units. Many, many games have recieved tons of merchandise and stuff just like Halo. Which is why I've never understood why people throw a fit about Halo in this regard.

My teacher works for High Voltage Pradyut Panda. He was telling me has a small company they had to start somewhere. They had to find a way to get into the field to be able to make the money so that they could make the games they wanted. You can't discount them for games made in the past. You always have to start somewhere.

[QUOTE="vashkey"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] Then what is the most hyped game. Because I haven't seen any other like halo. what other game has had t-shirts, power drinks. Mountain dew covers so on and so forth?Animal-Mother

Pokemon, Mario, Megaman, Final Fantasy, Donkey Kong. Plenty of games. I mean, just look at Pokemon. An anime running at over five hundred episodes, over ten theatrical movies, fast food promotions with Subway, Mcdonalds, KFC, Burgerking, various clothes lines, Pokemon edition Gamecube, N64, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, DS and DS Lite units. Many, many games have recieved tons of merchandise and stuff just like Halo. Which is why I've never understood why people throw a fit about Halo in this regard.

You fail to realize he's only mentioning the 360 right?

Yeah, I missed that. Although there have been Pokemon, Mario and Final Fantasy games this gen.

Yes I know. But Halo 3's hype has exceeded them all those games. Easily.

Uhh, yeah.... :| Microsoft are just hyping their game to try and make it look like it sold really well.

link showing that M$ is just hyping their game to try and make it look like it sold really well?

We all know MS lies. Halo 3 only sold 763k units total. The rest was MS spin.
