So remember when I wrote that angry blog post about poor MadWorld sales? No? How about now?
Well, I followed that up with a poll because I was curious about whom, out of our own community, actually bought the game. I was concerned about are the "hardcore" Wii owners and why they were not buying the game.
Here are the results:
Did you buy MadWorld?
78 (8%) - Yes.
367 (37%) - No, and I have a Wii.
530 (54%) - No, I don't have a Wii.
The results surprised me to say the least. Only about 20% of the Wii owners who voted bought the game. Was I wrong to assume that we (our community) are the "hardcore"? I would have expected that number to be at least 50%. Do the Wii owners care to explain why they passed on the game? I'm more curious than anything. The game did get good reviews after all. We talked about it plenty and even played it on the feed the week it came out -- you guys were exposed to the game.
Next question: Why is it a bad idea to take a decent racing franchise and merge the vehicles with Walmart toy isle rejects?
April sales for ExciteBots: 13,000 (I didn't miss a zero).

I bought this. Acctually my brother bought it, but i asked for it. I needed to ask for it because I was 14-15 at the time. I played it and had a hell of a time playing it, it was one of my favorite games on the wii acctually. Although i had to return it due to parental involvment of the rating (i can play gears of war, god of war and halo though for some strange reason), i am appald at the results of the poll...it was a freaking balls to the walls expereance and i feel pity for thoughs that missed out on the game.
(woops for my spelling)
