We Sing Fans Are Asking for More than the Company Can Provide

The karaoke game We Sing has proven to be a huge hit for Nordic Games Publishing AB. Their Nintendo Wii exclusive title is doing far better than expected and right now they might have trouble answering the demand of the public. The karaoke game took a pretty unique spin on the rhythm music genre and it might become one of a long line of similar iterations.

“Ever since we first unveiled We Sing at Gamescom’09 both trade and consumers have been insatiable in their desire to discover more about the title,” stated Nik Blower, Nordic Games’ Sales & Marketing director. “Our partners throughout Europe have done a fantastic job and left us with the enviable problem of having to try and manufacture significantly more units in time for the peak-season rush.”

The orders for We Sing have increased close to the limit that the company can support. The publisher offers different SKUs for the title, with some including quality microphones. Logitech is the name that Nordic Games has been working with and they hope that this leading peripheral manufacturer will be able to supply them with the products in the quantity that the fans have asked. Nordic has been pushing Logitech to provide the special controllers for the karaoke game, and they've even asked them to increase the order they've already placed, but if they can't keep up with the public's demand, the game might just sell out.

The product has been doing very well for itself and its company too. Nordic's title has been on the top spots of the pre-order charts and is listed amongst the top ten titles for the Wii according to several companies. The rhythm game market may have dropped since last year, but that's only because it was so high when it started. All games of the genre have been doing great despite industry claiming that they've hit a rough patch. After all, when you're on top, the only way to go is down.
