March NPD: MadWorld sells 66,000 units

madworlda2

Sega’s MadWorld managed a paltry 66,000 units in the US last month, according to this Gama report.

The Wii game has been well-received in general, hitting 82 percent on Metacritic.

Rockstar’s GTA Chinatown Wars, the big “core” DS game of last month, only managed 89,000 units in the US.

More through there. Thanks, Blerk.

Seems over for Nintendo third-party support. Again.

ooooops… now that’s not a great sell through is it… It can’t be a desirable proposition developing mature, original IP on wii. We’re seeing a bit of a flash back to the GameCube days aren’t we?

I reckon if you’d told them it was going to sell over 75% as much as GTA:CTW before the launch of either game they’d have been WELL excited.

I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
That the sales are kind of dying
When they’re the best we’ve ever had
