All third party core games without an established fanbase on Wii will fail.

Well, you have to judge failure fairly. For instance, would you call No More Heroes a failure? It is likely to go gold in it's lifetime. That doesn't sound like much but it's far better than anything Suda-51 has done before, and they were extremely happy with it's sales.

So you have to qualify what you mean by 'failure'. If you look at No More Heroes the way I do, then your prediction is already incorrect.

 

ok here's my uniform standard for failure:

if a game sells far less than the average for the genre that it is in, it is a failure. example, call of duty: world at war sold substantially less than the ps3/360 versions. it is a failure. if the conduit happens to sell far less than the average sales for a shooter (i'm not comparing it to call of duty, but the average), then it is a failure.

 

thats not really fair for cod. it may be at .65 right now, but it has the chance to sell up to 1mil + and thats definitely not a failure, even tho its less than the others
