your example fails at a basic level.  The point of my post was to indicate that the Monster Hunter Franchise has made more money to capcom on psp than anywhere else, and when capcom tried to change the experience they were providing on PSP by releasing the game on the WII the 3.6+ millions gamers didnt follow suit, thus they have only sold 980,000 copies a lot after being discounted and its currently available at bargain bin prices and even like that more people buy the game for psp currently.


So..., what does the fact that the PSP following didn't all move to the Wii say about anything? Is it just an angle you can take to make it look like it failed?

The point is that just because you make a game with monster hunter on the title will sell like the best, if it doesnt carry the meaning and the qualities that have make the game a success with the audience. Making a game for the WII (like metal gear) wont sell as well as the one on the console that shares the qualities that make the franchise a success in the first place.

 

cannot make it more clear than that.
