Nine screens for the Playstation Movie title, Racquet Sports.
SFG writes,"As someone who enjoys playing tennis in real life, I have been waiting for a good Move enabled tennis game. I try to play on the real courts, but everyone I have found to play with, didn’t mesh. It is either I find someone who owns a racquet, but they don’t know how to use it, so my time is spent waiting or chasing balls all over the court. Or, I find a partner who used to be a tennis pro in Europe, and they constantly try to break me with the ball even during light warm-ups. I searched out the next best thing."
Originally released for the Wii, Racquet Sports is a PlayStation Move only title that includes five different sports that use racquets. There are 35 trophies to collect including 18 bronze, 11 silver, 5 gold and 1 platinum trophy.
Movemodo:
As Sony's flagship title for Move, Sports Champions has been at the forefront of the company's efforts to put motion control in the hands of gamers and non-gamers alike. That's why it's so surprising to see it beaten in the software sales charts by EyePet: Move Edition, with the cuddly critter taking the top spot in standalone software sales across America.
So no one brought any games with their Move purchase? All the launch titles are under 20,000 yet it sold 1ml?
Something isn't right here.
Heavy Rain, RE5 Gold, MAG and maybe few more existing DualShock games can be patched to support Move.
Count their sales.
also Sport Champion's 20,000 sales is EXCLUDING hardware and accessory bundles.
And Eyepet sold more than 20,000, but we don't know how much.
Read the article properly.
Edit: lol @ the disagrees.
Move was not aim at one particular demographic. It's aimed for everyone. Thats why you will never see one particular game focused on one type of gamer sold much more than the others. It's spread evenly.
Move is not the wii. Once you get over that fact you will be a bit wiser.
Also, the 1 million has already been clarified as shipped.
Im going to go with gamers are playing the core games that got patched instead of the casual ones.
Don't the media have better things to worry about then what games sold what?
Nah, it adds up.
First of all, the numbers we have heard are shipped, not sold. Second, people who actually buy it may buy more than one controller.
Move`s success is simply an illusion, where as Kinect will see true success.
shut up, and play (with your brain, all the games, even kinect one, will be good enough)
@shutupandplay,
Sorry man! But read the article again. Since the Moves launch we already have preliminary numbers of 350,000+ Move bundles sold in the first few weeks in the USA only (over 100,000 Sports Champions in the first week world wide)! This bundle INCLUDES Sports Champions, which is the basic starter game.
Please stop acting like consumers aren't able to read display signs that show bundles that INCLUDES Sports Champions next to the standalone game. This is because new consumers to the Move was just release and they don't own any controllers or PS Eye. Even as the years go on Sports Champion will be a game that will be included in the bundle, so standalone sales for that game will always be a secondary option. That's all this article is pointing out.
As far as Kung-Fu Rider!? Meh! I don't care about that game! I prefer Tumble (PSN download) and in the future Sorcery!
Hey! Lets report on standalone sales when we know that the same game is included in the bundle! /sarcasm
"Gamasutra reports that around 20,000 copies of Sports Champions (STANDALONE) were sold in North America in September, but bear in mind this doesn't include copies sold with the Starter Pack or the 320GB hardware deal"
The real games will compete against Kinect in December: Heavy Rain Move Edition, Time Crisis, Sly Cooper. Plus more in 2011. Microsoft, Kinect better be able to bring it!
Sony should market Heavy Rain w/ Move to the Oprah crowd.
You can take a dump in a lunch bag and Oprah's crowd would still eat it up
People who are her fans trust her because they see her as honest and trust worthy. Oprah is one of the most respected personalities in the media, at a time where the media can't be trusted. Oprah is known for giving hot items to her audience.
Can only wonder if Kinect numbers come in anywhere close to Move's will the current people attacking Move's sales apply the same to Kinect.

Lol, the menu looks a awful lot like the xbox menu thing.
Not sure what to say about it. Looks generic at the moment.

As far as casual sports titles go, anyway. I'm sure the audience it's target at, will be happy with it, judging by these screens.
i thought it was on Wii ??!!!!
