Procrastinato: The only way one can say Wii doesn't sell "M" games is to magnify the games that didn't sell well (which is generally more than the game just being rated M) And ignore the M games that did sell well (which again is generally more about the game itself moreso than the ESRB rating)

Also from looking at Wii's game collection and seeing the games that sell, I'm noticing a lot of "fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me" So many of the "mini game" "petz and deca sports and even Shaun White, boom blox etc (I could go on lol) Wii owners like something fresh and aren't into the whole annual purchase of the same game with minor tweaks sort of thing.

I remember a quote from Miyamoto early on in Wii's life making reference to if third parties want success on the platform, they need to designate their A teams to the Wii instead of the C teams being asked to make a Wii game. This hasn't happened. 3 yrs in and there hasn't been a AAA third party effort yet. Save for MH3 which proves the opposite of what many third parties (and forum dwellers) are saying.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
