At week 7, the Wii version was ahead by 600K. At week 27, it is behind by 900K. So in 5 months, it has lost 1.5m vs. the DS version. Clearly it is not going to sell in the same range as the DS version; well less than half. No point in bringing up Gamecube; it was a failure, and outperforming a failure does not make you a success.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
