Why is this a surpirsed?
Muramasa: The Demon Blade 130k sales
Mad World 310k sales
cursed mountain 50k sales
The Conduit 270k sales
No More Heroes 470k sales
Little Kings Story 120k sales
I know this isn't all of them, but its some of the 3rd party core games for the wii, the most successful being 470k sales, and that's from a legendary developer and a game that appeals to anime kids who probably have a wii.
You knew there was little to no market for non first party core games on the wii and I'm not sure what they were expecting. Dead space was successful on the hd consoles because that is where that audience is, why they did this I'll never know. I guess it was an attempt to make a lot of money off their existing Ip with a cheap game to produce, but seriously, lame marketing didn't help you out either.
Reviews don't matter if your user base has been proven to not buy core 3rd party games. Stick to making wii fit spinoffs and you'll be rolling in cash EA, stop making a fool of yourself. |
Dead Space WASN'T successful on the HD consoles according to EA, and you can't blame marketing on this.

Huh ...? I remember them complaining about piracy but at 1.5 million not counting PC sales I think it did alright. Maybe it didn't meet their expectations but it must have been successful if they're continuing the franchise.

I remember they complaining about Mirror's Edge and Dead Space sales.
