If you want to boast about 3rd party success you should point out the games people really love on the Wii (based on sales). Raving Rabids, Game Party, Carnival Games, My Sims, High School the Musical, Deca Sports, Hannah Montana, Lego Star Wars (LEGO ANYTHING!), etc. Clearly those are the games the masses want because they sell like hot cakes on the Wii.
The sales of the games you mentioned are modest/poor compared to the numbers of those mega hits! The upcoming titles you mentioned... aren't exactly big releases. Silent Hill hasn't been a big seller in years. Overlord didn't set the charts on fire. The FF coming to the Wii isn't the one people care about. The Tales of franchise isn't that big and JRPG sales have seen a huge decline in sales compared to the past. The rest of the games you mentioned will fade into obscurity.
I'm not denying major developers will continue to support the Wii. The quality of the titles however... aren't quite at par with the HD consoles.
Edit: This helps my argument... and poops on yours.

That made me laugh. JRPGs dont sell people don't care anymore. People want this game (FFXIII). What kind of game is it? A JRPG!

You're putting words in my mouth. I did say JRPGs have had a decline in sales. I never said they "dont sell people don't care anymore."
None of the JRPGs on the PS3 and 360 have cracked a million and some of those were big releases. The Wii JRPGs have had abysmal sales with exception to Pokemon. FF and Pokemon are still going strong but the genre as a whole appears to be struggling outside of the DS.

lol yeah, DQS and ToS: DotNW had shitty sales, right? |
OH MY GOD! 0.61 and 0.37!!!!!!!!! I didn't realize those were such monster hits. And lets completely neglect how poor the other JRPGs are doing.
