25,482,301 total, wii sports #s are so insane. I play it from time to time but Its shallow and casual bah. Its ushering in the motion controlls which I think is cool though. Wiifit brought a whole new fetish to the softcore pron industry. These things are steps along the way to the eventual ultimate VR machine. There was once Virtual boy. One day there will be Virtual Man.

Ben10545759d ago

with Wii Sports it comes with every Nintendo Wii

creeping judas5759d ago

motorstorm was packged with PS3 and is now the PS3's best selling game.

forza2 was packed for a while with the 360, and im sure its one of the systems top sellers.

it all depends on how you look at it, and what fanboy glasses one is wearing at the moment.

INehalemEXI5759d ago (Edited 5759d ago )

True, yet the fact that so much hardware movement is reflected in wiisports sales is impressive too. Look at all the money going into this new casual + motion control market. I hate that its cheap casual crap mostly these days. Its going to lead to more engrossing epic games one day though.

Im glad Konami and Sony did MGS4 bundles I hope they keep those coming all year. MGS4 is the sh1t. :D

Real Gambler5759d ago (Edited 5759d ago )

-30% is were they cheat. Everytime a blockbuster came out, they had a surge in Wii sales. Halo3, MGS4, etc. Then the week after, huge drop. I really hate how they control the number of Wiis on the shelves to make sure they look good no matter what. Last time I pick up a blockbuster title, I found Wiis in 2 out of the 3 stores I visited, including one Walmart (were I was told they receive the same number of Wiis, weeks after weeks). Since then, none on the shelves since they trickle the supply again.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis4h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast3h ago

It's worth a play through today.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv7223h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK21h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast3h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake20h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast3h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon15h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast3h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.
