They stopped buying those. Did you even pay attention to recent news? |
They might have stopped buying those specific games, but they didn't stop buying those type of games.
Top selling Wii games from this weeks top 25 that aren't Nintendo published, and don't feature any Nintendo characters (afaik)...
8. Just Dance 9. MW: Reflex 10. EA Sports Active 11. Your Shape ft. JM 13. LEGO SW 14. Band Hero 15. Deal or no Deal 16. Taiko something 18. NERF NStrike Elite 20. EA Sports Active + 21. Carnival Games Mini Golf 22. Toy Story Mania 24. Random long named Japanese game. 25. Hasbro Family Game Night 2
Did they really stop buying those?

At the level when it showed they preferred those games over everything else.
And Monster Hunter 3 shows the vision can still be done, just with more imagination and talent than just thinking you need the best graphics.

They obviously are still prefering and wanting those type of games. The rest of the top 50 is just as bad.
Monster Hunter 3 is a huge, huge game. After the massive success of the games on PSP, 1 Million was all but guarenteed. It's surprising that it took so long to reach 1 Million IMO. And Monster Hunter 3 is one of the best looking Wii games out right now...

Which means any similar game from a hit series can do well on the Wii, since if the audience didn't want those games it would not have sold that many.
