Sales results for The Conduit are in
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 19 Comments
SEGA stated last week that The Conduit saw “very strong week one sales.” But how has it performed according to the June NPD sales data? In the short time that the game was on the market, The Conduit sold 71,913 copies. Keep in mind that the title only had nine days of sales, as it released on June 23rd.
