chrono trigger didnt do as highly as expected, but the final fantasy remakes did warrant 2 units,a s well as several spin offts,It all boils down to the title of the third party offered, Okami from capcom bombed, but RE 4 wii from capcom didnt, Punch Out!! is selling quite fine and steadily so, on par with higher budget games for other consoles with so called higher base, an example is infamous.
While madworld fate is arguable, it was cheaper to make for the wii than the similar PS3 game Afro samurai, and sold twice than that game.
Bionic commando millionary losses for ps3 were so huge, there were Layoffs as a result.It still has to reach 100k sales.And you think Madworld selling 200k is concerning?
HOTD on the other hand, selling over a million and the follow up making 300k in a few months, indicates success if anything.
Im proving right here with facts you can make a buck on ninty consoles as third party, if you promote and dont expect to compete with pokemon or wi fit, games that NO CONSOLE CAN HOPE TO COMPETE WITH. Halo3,nor MG4 nor any game from their respective consoles can hope to compete with such titles.Much less lower budget wii titles either.
What about Red steel?million seller being so bad, third party and all that. Enough to get a sequel too. Ubisoft is certainly not complaining.
Thats the core market showing your wrong ways.
And i sure you arent talking about the casual market, because theres a bigger slap in the face for your argument. EA is selling 600k units of their fitness game within weeks, and announced more than mere satisfaction with the sales.
And carnival games, in the casual dpt of sales, is third party and sold what,3 million?
So third party can succed on the wii in casual AND core market.No contest.
