Third parties that put out quality titles that people want have not had a problem. Crystal Bearers may not be as wanted as the main FF series, it is far more wanted than an on rails shooter. Assuming it's actually a quality title, it will easily break 1 million.

What are those quality 3rd party titles you are referring to? I am quite confused when I look at the top sellers.

I don't see many if any quality third party titles at the top. Sure RedSteel was great but it sold because it was a launch title not due to it being a great title. I mean come on look at titles like CarnivalGames, these games are shovelware they don't deserve the high sales. Infact look at the top selling first party titles for example. Can you honestly call WiiPlay a AAA+ quality title? Or how about WiiMusic from what I've heard it was appauling.

Great solid games don't sell on the Wii. Casual titles sell on the Wii. Even Nintendo's own big wig titles the best of the best that Nintendo has to offer pale in sales comparison to other titles like WiiFit. Its not who can make a quality title anymore its who can make a game that appeals to both Women and children.

A perfect example would be Conduit. I bought it day one, it is hands down the best shooter on the Wii and the best online experiance I have had on any game for the Wii. Yet it gets beaten by Carnival Games.

Their is no justice on the Wii. Yes it remains my favorite platform but no it is not hardcore friendly! Though I love it when developers through us the odd hardcore title!
