Gaming analysts slash DJ Hero projections in half

Yeti — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:40:08 +0000

Not even Jay-Z and Eminem might be able to save this one. Although Activision’s DJ Hero is EVERYWHERE these days as it hits stores tomorrow, it looks like Wall Street analysts aren’t buying it…and neither will consumers. Analysts Cowen & Company have dropped their projections for DJ Hero in half due to lack of interest from a recent retailer survey.

“On DJ Hero, despite some recent positive comments from company management about pre-orders, we remain very cautious about the title’s prospects at launch,” he noted. “A survey of online retailers indicates a demand profile that is well below what we would have expected to see just a few days before launch for a title that was destined to be a big (or even modest) hit. As a result, we are reducing our estimate for DJ Hero Q4 US unit sales from 1.6 million to 600,000, and we are reducing our first year estimate from 2.5 million to 950,000.”

There are a lot of factors that go into this…for many it’s the fact that consumers don’t want another fake plastic instrument crowding up the family room…for others…scratching on turntables just doesn’t have the appeal of rocking out on a guitar. We’ll just have to see how sales go tomorrow. Now if only Dr. Dre was involved. Via: Kotaku

Eric B & Rakim x NBA 2K10. One of the best sports video game TV commercials we have ever seen…and we don’t even like Kobe. Set to Eric B & Rakim’s classic “Don’t Sweat the Technique.” Nice to see a classic song getting some major recognition today. Ad is currently running on national TV programming.

Activision already recruiting DJs for DJ Hero 2

Yeti — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 10:39:31 +0000

DJ Hero won’t even hit stores until the end of this month but Activision is so sure it will be a success that they are already recruiting DJs to jump on board for DJ Hero 2. In fact, Activision CEO Mike Griffiths thinks DJ Hero has the ability to outsell the hugely successful Guitar Hero.

“Outside of those 15 million household’s, there’s another 300 million that haven’t for one reason or another bought Guitar Hero yet. One of those reasons is we’re not reaching new genres and new music audiences in a way that DJ Hero allows us to accomplish,” stated Griffiths.

In order to develop updates to DJ Hero and new franchises, the company has already enlisted various game programmers to start working on DJ Hero 2 and is currently recruiting high profile DJs such as Q-Bert to join the DJ Hero family. Activision only has one thing left to do….sell over 15 million copies of DJ Hero. Via: GameIndustryBiz

Daft Punk’s influence in hip-hop is no secret. Most of Activision’s promotions with DJ Hero have been centered around hip-hop but their new trailer featuring Daft Punk clearly appeals to the mainstream…and in our opinion it’s working. The game actually features eleven different Daft Punk remixes.
