Why did Red Steel continue to sell so many copies even after gamers acknowledged it is a terrible game?
Why is a watered down port selling so well?
Maybe Wii owners do not deserve quality FPS like "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare". Why bother to make great FPS if Wii owners will buy any FPS with pretty box?

1. Because it was a launch game. After that, sales came because it cost $20 or less.

2. Because it's one of the best on the platform. Of course, if it didn't sell, people would just say that proves there's no market for FPS on the Wii. Nice catch-22 you've set up there. You're so clever.

3. Yeah, why bother competing at all? Superior products never attract more customers than inferior ones. Your wisdom is astonishing.

Your third statement sums up many of the games for Wii.  Terrible games like "Mario Party 8" and "Mario and Sonic Olympic Games" outsold "The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess".

Carnival Games, Wii Music, Game Party, Sonic and the Secret Rings, High School Musical Sing It, Red Steel and Ben 10: Protector of Eath all sold more than 1 million copies.  Furthermor Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour almost reached 1 million in sales.


Yes, why bother trying to make superior products when Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour can reach 1 million copies sold?
