Are you referring to the games that essentially got lost in translation amongst the big holiday lineup (Dead Space and ME), the game that has sold over a million amongst the HD consoles, and probably over a million alone on the PS3 due to it being a PSN title (Burnout), or the game that I openly admitted to failing at retail (ToV). The only thing, under those conditions, that Mushroom Men is comprable to it ToV....there were no big releases around that game on the Wii...except maybe CoD: WaW (but nobody on the Wii bought that game)....and this game is definitely not a million seller. So, what're you getting at about "no one wants to talk about that"? The reason games like Prince of Persia and Valkyria Chronicles do badly is because Gears 2, Fable 2, Resistance, LBP, CoD: WaW, Fallout 3, etc. completely surround it. What excuse do you have for MM doing badly? |
People couldn't even find Mushroom Men in stores. Not only that, comparing expensive, heavily marketed games like Dead Space and Mirror's Edge to Mushroom Men isn't particularly fair. Not to mention, although WE don't feel as though many games came out on Wii, more releases flooded Wii shelves than either PS3 or 360. So the same excuse you use for Mirror's Edge and Dead Space not selling applies to Mushroom Men.
Besides, is anyone in the market for a platformer really gonna pick up Mushroom Men over Super Mario Galaxy? And also, every game doesn't have to sell. And every game is not going to sell. Even good ones. It seems like PS360 fans sit and scour the sales of Wii games to use as ammunition for games not selling on the Wii - its pathetic actually.
