The M-rated grindhouse film-inspired gore fest House of the Dead: Overkill has managed to make a modest bit of headway on the typically family-friendly Wii.
The light gun game from Sega and U.K.-based Headstrong Games sold 45K units during the month of February, NPD told Edge. The game launched February 10.
NPD analyst Anita Frazier said it landed around the 50th spot in the top-100 SKUs for the month in unit sales.
Guns, girls, cars and dreams in week two of the SEGA list.
House of the deads, Panzer dragoons, space harrier, virtua on/Cop and shoot even shenmue.
VR is the perfect platform for every rail shooter. From House of the Dead to Virtua Cop or even Time Crisis, Silent Scope..
They can also bring their racing franchises back, like Scud Race, Daytona, Sega Rally, Crazy Taxi, 18 Wheeler..
So many hidden treasures just waiting to be brought back.
SEGA Europe Ltd. have announced that The Typing of the Dead: OVERKILL has launched exclusively for PC Digital Download just in time for Halloween. Available now, the original The House of the Dead: OVERKILL is also included in the package.
SuperPhillip Central writes, "We've already had two weeks totaling twenty unique Wii titles that are the best the system has to offer. We continue our look back at the Wii's library with ten more games spanning various genres and franchises like Donkey Kong, Kirby, Final Fantasy, and Resident Evil. It is my hope that with this list of fifty that the mindset of the Wii having a weak library is, well, weakened. It's a console with an overwhelming amount of variety and mass diversification within its collection of games. Let us see what the next ten highlights of the Wii's library are."
No Twilight Princess or The Last Story love so far for any lists????
Ouch. That's what you get for making an M-rated title that no one knows about on Wii. I see them selling a little over 100k in total sales.
Small initial sales don't mean small lifetime sales. Unreal Tournament sold like 40,000 in its first month but went on to sell over a million worlwide. Crysis sold around 90,000 its first month but has now sold 2-3 million.
W@W for wii opened at around that as well, it is now a million seller.
sad man, this is one of the best game I played on wii, even though its not very polished and glitchy. I don't think Madworld sell very well either.
Wow, low sales.
