There were just 21 million GC owners but there are already almost 50 million Wii owners and that's likely to easily double in the next 2 years. And of those 21 million GC owners, barely more than 1 million actually purchased those games. That's a lot of people who never had a chance to play (own) those games. |
A 50 million userbase still does not mean that RE0 and REmake will sell more than a million units. RE4 only mananged to sell a little over two million units on the PS2 eventhough it had a userbase of over 100 million. Besides, a lot of RE fans have already purchased and played these games. Without added features many will not be willing to revisit these games. The sales for RE0 and REmake in Japan are indicative of this. But these games only have new controls and nothing else so Capscum will be happy with any sales that they can get. It's all money for them.
If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba
