Probably the most interesting snipit from this interview.

MTV Multiplayer: How did you persuade THQ to greenlight this idea?

Itkowitz: It was pretty easy, actually, because of the fact that we pitched it on the Wii — that was the magic word. [THQ] was really interested in doing something for the Wii because they didn’t have a whole lot on the roster for that. They were really supportive of the concept the whole time. I mean, it is kind of an experiment though, because everybody — from fans to the press to gamers — have been saying they want more core stuff on the Wii, and they’re tired of the mini-game compilations. So the response to [the game] so far has been really good. I hope people vote with their dollars in February so we can make some more. Otherwise, it’s back to mini-games.

If you don't buy Deadly Creatures, THQ will go back to publish mini-game complications.  Please buy it people... I loved de Blob and I hope for more games like it from this publisher. 

not going to happen. De Blob was amazing and nobody supported it.

I was gonna say, de Blob is waaaay past my expectations right now, and I thought I was being optimistic at thinking of 500k before the end of the year...

 

Yeah de Blob is easily going platinum sometime this year.   Good games on Wii start slow and then build up as word spreads.   Wouldn't surprise me if De Blob goes double platinum but I still have little hope for DC.
