That is also a good point.
Maybe all of our expectations are just unrealistic for the market? I remember someone quoting Sunshine sales as "the most disappointing thing of the year" (years back now).
Mario 64 was a little different though - it was a launch title, so there wasn't a huge install base to cater to.

In my opinion, if Galaxy on the Wii doesn't sell well in Japan - Japan has well and truly gone off consoles. It doesn't bode well for the sales of any other console titles (for any platform). Time to port MGS4 to the DS & PSP :P
(it might also be a pricing thing - maybe Ninty needs to bundle Galaxy with a cheaper Wii? The Wii is still "relatively" pricey there?).
