Ubisoft: 2m Michael Jackson: The Experience Games Sold in 2010

by Jacob Mazel, posted on 06 January 2011 / 2,389 Views

Ubisoft's latest foray into the dance genre is a success. According to a press release, "Michael Jackson The Experience is a global holiday hit as it has sold through two million units in total for the Wii(TM) system from Nintendo, the Nintendo DSTM and the Sony PlayStation® Portable in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, according to internal estimates."

Ubisoft plans to launch the game in Japan later in 2011 where the company believes the game will do well. Michael Jackson will also launch for Move and Kinect during mid-April 2011 with exclusive songs "Blood on the Dance Floor" and "I Just Can't Stop Loving You".

Gamasutra is also claiming that 90% of sales for the game to date have been on Wii although that information is not in the press-release. Figures are in line with VGC data, as the title has sold the overwhelming volume of units on Wii, rather than PSP or DS, to date.

Man, as a HUGE fan of Michael before he died, let me say that his posthumous album is total crap. From the video review I saw, the game is total crap, too (and if I'm not mistaken, wasn't the PS3/360 version delayed? That's gonna be even more sales). Not too sure how I feel about my absolute favorite music artist of all time being desecrated like this.

When I saw my family play the game I knew it was going to be big! Michael Jackson+ Wii Dancing Game= Instant Money Maker. The game has a cool presentation and great song selection! If they add to it on Kinect. The It should do well there too! Family Footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUuL4ZcN92o
