Only bad Wii games sell badly - Bloober

The idea that every good game becomes a commercial success and therefore you can just map sales to quality is a wonderfully black and white way to see the world. Regardless of how false it is, it would be nice if true.

Quality and marketability. You can build success out of those two, and that's the key. Wii development seems to be a one-or-the-other approach, of making quality games that are extraordinarily niche, or making marketable games that have shit production values.

Which I completely agree with, Quality is not the sole cause, and I would say it isn't even the main cause.  The main reason one games seels more than another is marketability, advertising, and just how well established the series is.  Just because a game isn't marketable and therefore doesn't sell doesn't mean that it also is of poor quality.
