Tell you the truth Im not sure what the hell this argument/debate/converstations really about anymore......

Either way a rushed low budget spin-off/sequel on Wii with new users outselling and HD higher budget game is defintily not a terrible or bad seller.

The bold is the argument.

You want to hail Tales of Symphonia 2 outselling Vesperia as great because to quote you "a rushed low budget spin-off/sequel on Wii" outsold a "HD higher budget game."

I am saying, it's not as great an achievement as you believe because the first Tales of Symphonia is quite possibly the highest selling non-Nintendo RPG on the Gamecube and that gives Tales of Symphonia 2 an advantage in terms of recognition whereas the budget is basically a non-factor. 

The statement should read more along the lines of "The Wii sequel to one of the best selling RPGs on the gamecube outsold a higher budget 360 game of the same franchise."

Note that I say 360 instead of HD.  The PS3 version hasn't hit the states yet and 0.05 million isn't a huge gap.
