DISASTER: DAY OF CRISIS DOES POORLY IN EUROPE

It seems that the lack of advertising for Disaster: Day of Crisis has equaled in poor sales; which means, if Reggie keeps to his word, it won't be hitting North America.

It seems that Reggie will have his way with no Disaster: Day of Crisis within North America after it had a terrible first week within Europe.

According to the latest European sales charts the game wasn't in the top 40 within the UK, wasn't in the top 20 for Ireland or Norway, and failed to make it within the top 10 in Germany and Spain. What is even worse is the game failed to be within the top 50 Wii releases in the UK last week.

So will Nintendo stick to Reggie's word that if the game does poorly it won't come to North America or will they take a gamble?

Nintendo should release this game within US as it will sell more and it is a good title also.

Maybe for Nintendo the lack of advertising is a good strategy. Stupid move by Nintendo to advertise only their Brain Training and other garbage. As an european I'm glad to play it, but I tink it should be released also in USA, it is better than the most Wii games.

I also think that maybe Nintendo is waiting the next year to decide, so they can count how many copies this game sold in Europe in the Christmas period.
