Woehooew... Just got it today, at the European launchdate!

The fighting and boss-battles are totally awesome... Although i was kinda bummed by the graphics... (I was just playing CoD4 on my PS3 a few minutes before i booted NMH up)... It's quite a shocker to see PS3/X360 games next to games like NMH but whatever, the game still rocks! And it's totally awesome! The graphics might not be really good but i can life with that... I still think Gamecube games look good!...

People, buy this game! Really...

Ohyeah, something interesting:

My store got 7 copies at launchday. I was there at 3 'o clock and i bought the fifth copy. They also said they thought they wouldn't get any new copies after 2 months after the release... That it would be quite a niche-title in time... So people, buy it... Now or never!

Right I didn't think that all profit went solely straight back to Grasshopper, but I've gotta believe with the somewhat small budget for this game it had to make some profit by now. They DID have a party and all of that.

I'm sort of disappointed with how fast the sales have dropped off. I think 400k now is more reasonable. I hoped that word would get around about this game and push some good sales, but that's not the case.

Still waiting on a third party hardcore game break-out on the Wii. I suppose the Resident Evil games are selling well. And Dragon Quest Swords (which is actually a pretty cool game) is selling alright.

sizynski : IMO the devs get ~ 20 $ / game , and the development budget was probably ~ 2-3 million . That means that at ~ 200-300k copys sold , they break even , and then its all just profit . With EU sales this game could hit LT 500k , and thats a nice little profit there :)

@sizynski

Your math is a little simplified. The retailer, the publisher, and Nintendo all get a slice of that $50. It's hard to know how much of it makes it back to Grasshopper.

That being said, the break-even point for this title is probably around 200,000 units, and as Kasz says, Marvelous is already celebrating the success of this game.

Europe supposedly has up to 160,000 preorders for No More Heroes. If true, it should pretty much cement the game as a bonafide Wii success and will hopefully change the minds of some developers and publishers who think that hardcore games can't sell on the system.
Message | Report
sizynski posted 27/02/2008, 11:03
This game has definitely made a profit and will continue to profit. I would guess the budget at around $4 or $5 million. I'm sure a lot of dev time and stuff went into it seeing as how it's a new IP and everything, but as many have stated it's not exactly the most technically polished or ambitious game ever made.

50 dollars per copy * 170,000 copies = 8.5 million dollars

And Europe hasn't been accounted for yet.

If the game had a production budget of 10-20 million then yes, it would be a flop. But it obviously was created with much less than that, so its sales are to be looked at as a relative success. This is a niche game, its not a Mario, Halo, or Zelda, 350K lifetime sales would be great, my prediction is somewhere closer to 400K. I would love to be wrong and see it sell 1mil. GO Europe, buy this beast.

@ Damstr8

'Flop' is a relative designation.

For comparison, Killer7 sold less than 300,000 units on PS2 and Gamecube combined. No More Heroes has already sold three times what Killer7 sold in Japan, will match Killer7's US sales with only 35k more units, and has yet to launch in EU.

It's set to exceed publisher and developer expectations, as well as its predecessor. It's a success, not a flop.

Lets focus on the game people.

SO I finally got this beast after my last post. I didnt know what to expect awesomeness. WOW. Just wow. I don't think you can imagine the sheer violence in the game until you actually play it. Fantastic. It always keeps an upbeat tone though. Gears of War's violence seems so much more brutal because of the music, backgrounds, etc. NMH stays goofy and aloof while you are sprinting through some dude's mansion trouncing his cronies. While you can play the game laying down with little to no movement, it is so much better standing up and readying yourself for the brutal finishing moves. I am only one boss and a few side missions in, but so far so good. Can't wait to finish all this bullshit Engineering Senior Design and get back to slashing people in half.

yeah, this game was never slated to be a million seller. What we game fanatics sometimes over look is just because we all think a game is the shit, the Jonny America's and Teddy England's of the world probably give it no thought at all. Plus, if I had a 12 year old, I would probably not buy this for him. Now if I had a 12 year old girl, different story, having a daughter that is into slicing people into pieces with a light saber sounds hilarious. Since I finally got 6 weeks worth of back paychecks (thanks Federal Government), its time for me to go out and buy this game.

All you British, buy this game, I played it at my friend's house until he kicked me out, it's fantastic. He's from the Queen's Kingdom (his expression not mine) himself and says that any true Brit will buy this game and pretend all the bad guys are French. I sort of love that idea.

I'm at the second boss fight now... great game... A must own for anyone on the site!

I bought the game on Saturday at Futureshop in Whitby, they had 2 sections for the game on their Wii display case, it looks like they got a decent supply on the 7th as the game made it to the 6th best seller spot on the Wii's display. I grabbed the last copy on the shelf. I'm glad I found it!

thing is 68K already is US and a few weeks yet until SSBB comes out in US, here's hoping supply can be stable and this can sell similar figures at least for next few weeks before people give up and get their SSBB fix.

I think it will sell decent in Europe, have hopes for this one also - think it may just have decent legs.

I've had this game since the day it came out, but unfortunately I don't have a lot of time to play it so I'm only ranked #9 in the game. The thing that makes this game fun, to me, is that it's so over the top with the blood and all. It combines perfectly with the cell shading style and the corny dialog. It's a unique game...unlike most others, and that's what draws me to it.

Wanting to give a game a 1 just to piss people off ain't healthy.

the style makes up for the outdated graphics. The quasi-linear hack and slash nature average out the good things, and a red steel level of glitchyness and horrid collision detection drop it a little as well. Even though the main character is a gigantic douchebag (the fauxhawk should have tipped you off) The games plot is passable and it's STILL a lot of fun.

Best part is the answering machine messages he gets about the porn he rents, forgets to return, etc. The main character tries to be a pervert and hit on the ladies but the porn messages make it clear he is a virgin.

It reminds me of Dreamcast (not just cause of the graphics which are 1999 fare) but because it's still innovative, fun, and doubtful to be played by a lot of people. Don't let the glitchyness stop you from buying this short and SWEET game.

They probably didn't buy it because it's typical Suda51 faire: obscure, self-referential, and extremely violent. But it's fun, and it appears to be doing alright in the US from evidence thus far, so at least some parts of the world will appreciate it.

Ok, I've decided.

The humor, the combat, the awesomeness--they make this game so intriguing. Not to mention the fact that NMH is in love with being a video game.

As long as the game gets an average of 8+, I'm sold!
