Example 1: Units Sold Madden 2008 Xbox 360 1,061,416 VS Wii 151,565 Example 2: Tiger Woods PGA Xbox 360 143,595 Vs Wii 65,165 Example 3: Current EA Games in top 25 software sales. #5 Medal of Honor: Airborne Xbox 360 #8 Skate Xbox 360 #9 Madden Xbox 360 #11 NHL 08 Xbox 360 #13 Madden NFl 08 PS2 #16 Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 XBox 360 #20 Madden NFL 08 PS3 403,347 Face the facts, while the Wii systems are selling crazy well and so are the 1st party software releases. 3rd party software is a different story. |
Missing facts:
1. Third party games for the Wii have almost universally been late ports or shit.
2. Madden Wii got much worse reviews than Madden 360.
3. Tiger Woods 07 sold a ton of units on the Wii, relatively, but it was also released less than 6 months ago. That would definitely cut into 08's sales.
