Release date for RE4, Killer 7

I just said that Nintendo needs to release more games in q1 and q2.

And I agreed.

RE0 did the same numbers as REmake, which isn't all that great. BG&E did poorly because people don't know a good game when they see one, and Ubi Soft really didn't know how to market it.

Pretty much, yeah.

Nintendo counted on Mario being as big of a name today as it was six years ago, and obviously they were wrong. That coupled with their odd advertising and making it out to be some weird paint game instead of a very Mario 64-ish title led to its poor sales. Zelda did well because it still looked like a Zelda adventure, and when people saw it in motion they were obviously quite intrigued by it. But some things just don't make any sense, like Prince of Persia. It got very positive reviews, a good marketing campaign, and the game looks terrific in every way. Why it sold so poorly I will never understand.

Mario Sunshine, agreed. And Zelda. As for PoP... Great reviews don't count for much. That's why I'm hesitant when a game with good reviews sells well to credit the reviews -- SO many games that get good reviews fail by the standards they were expected to hit... Prince of Persia? No idea. People don't really like good games I guess... I haven't played it but it looks very good. Still there are a bunch of games I want before that one...

Oh, I got LttP for GBA. I like the world (given LA looks so similar to it...) but still think the character designs aren't as good as other Zelda games...
