• Did Nintendo 'Jump the Shark' with Wii Music?

  Did Nintendo 'Jump the Shark' with Wii Music? 'Jumping the Shark': The phrase refers to a scene in a three-part episode of the American TV series, Happy Days, first broadcast on September 20, 1977. In the third of the three parts of the "Hollywood" episode, Fonzie (Henry Winkler), wearing swim trunks and his trademark leather jacket, jumps over a penned-in shark while water skiing.  Jumping the shark is a colloquialism used by TV critics and fans to denote that point in a TV show or movie series' history where the plot veers off into absurd story lines or out-of-the-ordinary characterizations. In the process of undergoing these changes, the TV or movie series loses its original appeal. Shows that have "jumped the shark" are typically deemed to have passed their peak. The phrase has been used more recently outside the realm of popular culture, representing anything that has reached its peak and has turned mediocre. According to GoNintendo here is how Wii Music first day sales of stacked up against other Nintendo First Party Titles: Super Mario Galaxy: 130,000 on day one* Super Smash Bros. Brawl: 500,000 on day one * Wii Fit: 254,000 in first two days Mario Kart Wii: 594,000 in first four days Wii Sports: 176,167 in first two days Wii Play: 175,297 in first two days The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: 139,011 in first two days Wario: Smooth Moves: 63,954 in first two days Wii Music: 50,000 on day one The heavily promoted game is currently in the top 5 for Wii Amazon sales, and appears at the top of the Gamefly list, but certainly it is not meeting the same success as some of it's successor's, including Wii Fit.  One thing is for sure is that you can't count out this title as all Nintendo first party titles have a habit of having extremely long shelf life (and sales). So do you think Wii Music Jumped the Shark?   Posted Friday, October 31, 2008 5:27 AM from Cheap Xbox 360 - Gamer News | 0 Comments
