blame that on EA, Wii gamers wanted a real dead space experience and this is what they plopped out lol. when I am done with most of the games I want to beat on Wii I am grabbing a 360 and the first thing I want to do is grab through both of the Dead Space games really cheap.

resi lies inbetween this and overkill and feels worse for it in my opinion. the resi feel only worked in tps's, on rails just doesnt suit it.

Dead Space got a massive ad campaign, there is no fighting that, this got basically nothing, add in the fact that it's rail shooter (which got most people interested in the game under strike), and you get these numbers, predictable. Although the game is great..

Hobowan posted 10/01/2010, 12:29
of course - i completely agree. they may have hoped for more on the HDs, with the cartoon, comics etc, but nonetheless i think they would be happier with the HD sales than with these. i also think it built a pretty good userbase for dead space 2, which i think will sell in line with their expectations for this universe they created.

all this game got was minimal hype, som banners and a one shot comic, which is hardly comparable. and it was a rail shooter (which i dont think would have been as mch of a problem if hotd2&2, hotdo, ghost squad and the resident evils didnt already exist)
The sales reflect that.

the original dead space did perform significantly better than this over the same period, on both the other consoles - at the same point in sales, dead space had reached 522000 on the ps3 and 695000 on the xbox, which really isnt that bad for a new IP

http://www.vgchartz.com/swlaunch.php?reg1=All&game1=Dead+Space+Extraction+-+Wii%5B31932%5D®2=All&game2=Dead+Space+-+PS3%5B13107%5D®3=All&game3=Dead+Space+-+X360%5B23325%5D&weeks=20

dead space 2 is going to sell massively on the back of it. it will platinum on both consoles easily i reckon.

this game...it did terribly underperform, and even christmas couldnt really adequately save it...im not suprosed EA are unhappy - although i understand the rail shooter argument, i dont think it is solely responsible for sales this low.
such a shame cos i LOVE this game - the best experience ive had on wii.

i guess a year on from release, a total of 350-400k would be reasonable for EA to aim for an expect now.

Honestly, with the cost of developing this game; it should have sold for $39.99 instead of $49.99 and it would have sold better. Wii games if you look at development cost should be starting at $39.99 anyways.

I agree with with Ash, Voltaire that this game did not receive ANY proper advertising like most Wii games; with the exemption of The Conduit. However, I do side with Boneitis that the sales were initially disappointing. It should be noted however that the first Dead Space even with it's massive (and yes it was massive ) failed to reach it's potential w/the PS3 reaching only 300K domestically despite being a true non-on rails game with massive advertising. This game at full price reaching 160k will probably end up near 400k domestically and 500k WW as Wii games are slow burners!

This game as far as I can remember was not properly advertised and mind you, the series is not popular. If they launched the game for 40 bux then it would have sold twice as much. Why would people pay full price for an on rails shooters unless they like it? As far as I can remember it, not a lot of people did. I know that this game is amazing but there are a lot of reasons why this did not sell and they are all justifiable.

Between a rail shooter, a racer with as much content as a ps1/n64 racer, and various mini-game and puzzle games, EA has no right to complain about their Wii game sales. Just because Wii owners don't have as many Mature games to choose from doesn't mean we'll gobble up lazy efforts. Bundle this and NFS Nitro together for 30 bucks and you've got yourself a deal.
