Wait a second.

I have the option of paying 250 dollars to play Wii Sports or 30 pounds to play one of these on the PS2 I already own. Which one is someone going to buy?

Even if it flops horribly cause it's of terrible quality it will still steal some Wii sales by logic.

Make more people go to the Wii? How the hell do you think so?

Saying this is a guaranteed flop is rushing it just a little. The PS2 does have a huge install base and Wiis are in short supply. I don't even think most people know a quality game if it hit them on the head.

 You know how sales trends go at the end of a generation, there are so many great cheap and/or used games, that only the creme de la creme can have any type of a successful sales run (I mean popularity, not necesarily quality).  This is 30 each game.  I don't see people paying 30 bucks for one WiiSports style title.  I don't think casuals buy the Wii just for Wii Sports/Wii Play, I think that they fully understand and expect to get more use out of the Wii than just those two games.

I think, 30 bucks for Wii Tennis by itself, even with extra modes, would feel like a rip off to most (hence the less than stellar sales of $50 tennis games).



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
