Rabbids is an example that fits within the "low budget == no sales" category.
DS:E is the way it is, because looking that good, on the Wii, isn't possible without limiting the scope of what the player can do at any one time. A cruddy-looking open shooter wouldn't have done better, and honestly, the demographics (or lack thereof) are what really killed it. DS:E is a good game, for what it is. Its way better looking than RE:4 Wii (which is actually quite linear, itself), whether you want to believe it, or not. They paid the rail shooter price, for the visual benefits. Another RE:4 wouldn't have gone any further.
