The fact that this game lacks a proper classic mode will keep some fans away from this game.
The sales of this game will be lower than MP8.

People bought Mario Party 8 and it sucked I'm sure they'll by 9 lol.
Sure, some will leave, but others may like the new car mode and buy it.Deauxnim said:
Most likely, sales will be higher than Mario Party 8 since it got such a better rating.
MP8 will sell better because it was released at the beginning of the Wii's life cycle and during thw whole Wii craze.
MP9 will not sell less than MP8 because a lack of Classic Mode.

Pretty sure it'll sell high. It's been five years since we last got Mario Party 8/DS.
The only problem is, it's out at just about the end of Wii's lifespan. Wii U will be out in Holiday 2012.

Gosh stop being negative about Mario Party 9...
If you judge a book by its cover, you might miss out on an amazing story.

That's the PERFECT reply. xD♥Princess Peach♥ said:
I don't think Mp9 will be bought less than mp 8. If you're a real Mp fan, then you've gotta buy it.
I couldn't agree more.♥Princess Peach♥ said:
People need to stop complaining about MP9. None of you even played yet. When you play it and say you don't like, I'll understand. So many people are just automatically saying they don't like it just cuz there's no classic mode. If you want to play the classic style, PLAY ONE OF THE OLDER GAMES. Change is necessary for things to evolve.
Just my 2 cents.
It's Mario Party. Honestly, how much can they change?♥Princess Peach♥ said:
This game will most likely sell well around launch, but a month after that I don't see it selling as much as Mario Party 8 did. I mean, the Wii U launch might limit how much this game will sell since it most likely will be the major thing this upcoming holiday season (Lol, I'm thinking 10 months into the future). Plus, it's like others have said previously, Mario Party 8 had an advantage since it was literally months after the release of Wii (it sold as much as all of the Gamecube Mario Party games combined). Besides, each Mario Party game (except Advance) has sold over a million copies, so expect MP9 to pass that. Even if it doesn't sell 7.79 million copies (which Mario Party 8 roughly has right now), selling a couple million copies is considered a success. It doesn't need to pass Mario Party 8's sales to be a success.
Indeed. Since, y'know, it's Mario Party, it can be expected to sell fairly well, even though it's gonna be released on a dying console and lacks a Classic mode. That's not stopping me from buying it though.
I don't think that the game will sell lower because people looks more interested about Mario Party 9. I sure enjoy Mario Party 8, even if most of people dislike it... but honestly, I am interested about the new concept of the game, and who knows, maybe some new people could be interested about the new mode and would like Mario Party with this game. I am amased about the new game upcoming, it looks so interesting, way more with Koopa (that I find really cute...) and Shy Guy! Whatever classic mode or not, I will be sure to buy it, it looks so interesting, and I am a Mario Party fan all the way!

Just being a Mario game is enough to sell a lot.
@cookieboy17 Sure, I'm aggred with you because there are some fans that like Mario games and would probably said (Why not buying and trying this game?) There are some people that can't miss Mario Party because they are hooked at the main series! (Like me, for an example, at the start!) But now, I really enjoy the Mario Party series, that's so fun and relaxing! Even if this game will be a little different, I am sure I will enjoy it! Sure, I am not happy to have missed some of them when I was younger... but I am mostly hooked at the newest ones now. (That doesn't mean that I dislike them and that they are nothing, but I really prefer the new ones better...)
Where do people get the idea that Wii games won't work on Wii U? Unless I missed something and Nintendo decided not to go with backwards compatibility (which would be totally uncharacteristic), you could still play MP9 on the Wii U.
If anything will impede MP9's sales it will be the fact that most people found MP8 to be a disappointment. And yes, I do believe that will happen. The Wii is still the most popular of the current-gen consoles and Mario Party is one of the longest running game series. MP9 will do fine.

You are right, they are supposed to be able to play on the WiiU... But I don't think that Mario Party 8 was bad, it was good, well for me, but I am really surprised about the new game and it will surely be better, of course!

That's exactly what I think everyone says MP8 was really bad but I find it fun as well as most of the other MP games that people say are bad.
