The thing is that they would have sold about as much on the HD systems. Just that the cost would have been higher, so they would have lost money.
These are niche titles, and 50K is actually a good opening for them. Just the Wii, DS, and PSP mean their budgets are in a reasonable range.
Valkyria Chronicles sold well, but for a PS3 game, it's not spectacular. If the sequel sells even half that well on the PSP, it's a success.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
