PS2 software sales are actually dying off pretty quickly. Within 12 months, there won't be *that* much activity left on the platform.
MH3 for the Wii is actually a really good fit. I think it matches the demographics well.

According to VGChartz last week, a relatively unknown (completely to me) Ar Tonelico 2 is significantly beating first week sales the Ar Tonelico 1 for the PS2. What data are you basing your assumptions on? Data like this suggests otherwise with regard to sales potential.
Why couldn't Monster Hunter 3 on the PS2 perform as well as Monster Hunter 1 and 2 did on the PS2?
Install Base Wii in Japan: Less than 4 million
Install Base PS2 in Japan: Over 22 million (plus over 1 million PS3 owners with backwards compatibility)
Obviously a vast majority of Monster Hunter fans own a PS2 as the previous games were never released on the GameCube!
Enlighten me please?
