@hanafuda: You obviously ignore all the counter reasons to your ignorant arguments, which means you are trolling. Same for Diomedes.

A game can't sell to people who are not interested in it, as simple as that. It may have not been a quick cash in, but it's a game made obviously for people who watched or at least know about the movie.

As for PES, Diomedes, I know you like trolling but this is just too much, troll. PES was launched on the Wii months later than the PS3 version, it featured a drastically changed control scheme, had a new title "playmaker" and had reduced content. Yet it sold more than 100k, which is pretty good for a game that was released on every other platform months ago and that was a complete new experience (we should know, it's Konami, they are dirty).

 

 Look ,little troll ,you may create all the excuses on the world it wont change a thing.PES on the Wii sold decent numbers but 1/3 of the PS3 version....it had a new control scheme and what not but precisely its the "new controls" what is being dubbed by Nintendo as the key to their success.Thing is ,in traditional games their "new controls" suck.And will continue to suck.As for the reduced content it will always be like that ....SD graphics, ,no online ,less options ,you name it.Thats why I am saying the situation will keep like that.The Wii will alwas be technically limited,it will always have less content ,it will have its waggle controls that core gamers arent so fond as casual gamers.OF course a big game as MH3 can succeed here and then ,just as Mario Galaxy succeded,but the Wii demographics and buying patterns are quite clear right now and we have seen this more than enough.The Wii is no PS2 regarding a lot of issues and it will never be it just doesnt have the features (technical prowess ,storage,controls,online infraestructure,you name it)it would need to be the choice console for both casual and core players.This is a different situation that last generation ,and this time the Wii may be very succesful and all but wont get the big games because of that.

 

First of all, learn how to use proper punctuation... It's getting on my nerves, your use of the coma is just terrible.

Then second, bolded, keep repeating that to yourself, even when you know it's just the biggest lie ever made. If it makes you happy do so, but just don't expect all those games to be on the HD's either. You simply don't know what you are talking about.

PES08 could have sold better had it included both forms of play, traditional and motion/pointer based schemes. Fans of a sports game are very reluctant to change when it comes to controls, they have a proper gameplay formula and they would need to learn it all over again. Besides PES08 was released like half a year later on the Wii than on the rest of the platforms, so only an idiot would expect higher sales. Reduced content only boils down to the developers, Nintendo has nothing to do with it. Online play was present in PES08, troll, as for the rest of the modes, Konami's choice not to include them, but gamers aren't stupid and will not keep on buying a crappy game. Konami promised a full experience for PES09 this time, though it will still face the same fate release date wise.

And you said it, big games sell big on the Wii, just as big games sold big on the PS3. The only difference is that the Wii saw hardly any big 3rd party game in Japan this gen, while the PS3 saw tons so far. The worrying thing for Sony is that they are running out of big 3rd party games, as most of them were announced before the Wii had become successful. We can now expect most of the 3rd party home console announcements for Japan to be for the Wii, and that includes big core franchises.

It will be funny to see your facial expression once quality games start hitting the Wii early next year. Funny times ahead.
