The thing is, none of the titles above have sold over 50,000, and probably never will. There are no sustained sales for them. The only games selling are Wii Sports, Hajimete no Wii, Zelda, Wario, and maybe Pokemon. Pretty much everything else has done very poorly.
There are four 50,000 sale or more titles in Japan right now by third parties. And yes, these and other titles will see sustained sales as the current ownership is small but constantly expanding.
The problem is that many of the games you listed were either
A: Geared towards the NA market, or
B: Really really crappy games.
Right now the Wii in Japan looks like it will mirror the DS. Nintendo Software is driving huge demand, which will in turn mean a large market for software, which third party develepors will wnat to cash in on.
So in conclusion, Virtua Fighter 5 probably won't see great sales, but will sell relatively well for PS3 software.
I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.
Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.
Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!
Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
