According to Edge Magazine (a VG Industry mag) a 20m game needs to sell 1m units to become profitable.

That's the avg price of an HD game or Really high-end Wii game (Zelda/Mario). So clearly Reggie was misquoted. He was probably talking industry avg not Wii avg but the reporter didn't know any better.

It makes more sense if Reggie's saying, most [HD] console games need to sell 1m to be profittable but we made development costs cheaper on Wii [so you don't need to sell that much]
