" I think one of the big things that we found out is it really is a mass market product where mom or whoever goes out, the 80% of the people out there who go out and buy a Wii box are happy with Wii Sports and they don’t really need another game. Or if they do need another game, they’ll buy Wii Resort because it comes with a free Wiimote or Wii Play…"
maybe cause they don't know other games exist since you don't advertise them?

seriously all 3rd party developers and publishers talk about wii games flopping and at the same time they release their games without any advertisement or letting people know that the game even exist, on weird date or produce too litle of them. yet at the same time they easily fork 20-40mln for advertisment campaigns for an average hd project.

just like SE was saying that it will be hard selling Crystal Chronicles to wii owners. it's definitely is hard when you release a title with no marketing and advertisement AT ALL behind it right AFTER christmas(who cares that the game was ready in november for japanese release) and send only very limited amount of copies. what the hell SE? you can easilly release 1.8mln copies of FF13 in japan even though they were sold out 3 weeks after release yet you can't ship even 100k copies of Crystal Bearers to USA? it's sold out in most places from what i heard.
i won't even talk about Dead Space Extraction situation.
