Except for Red Steel and arguably Star Wars: TFU, none of those are core titles. Red Steel was a launch title and Star Wars has the Star Wars name behind it... Also Red Steel and EA Sports active are the only new IPs, and EA Sports active is catering to the starved Wii balance board crowd. I mean Wii Fit was lacking in many ways for an exercise game and most of the others in that genre interactive video shovelware. Basically, I don't get your point in comparing it to these titles? It should be compared to: Metroid Prime 3 Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 Call of Duty: World at War Wii and HD titles like Perfect Dark Zero Killzone 2 etc. which still isn't fair because Killzone 2 is a PS3 showpiece title and the rest aren't new IPs... I think Halo should be totally left out of the discussion because nothing even compares to it in sales. |
I'm pretty sure his point was that only 7 third party Wii games opened higher than The Conduit, and The Conduit opened larger than 27 third party, million selling Wii games.
Basically, any Wii third party game that opened as big as The Conduit has gotten over 1 million in sales.
