Ooh, good idea, compare one of the worst selling Wii on rails shooters to the best selling PS3 one. |
Well, if there is another "not best" selling on rails HD game we can compare that too. You ignore everything else in my post.
So your argument is "we cant compare them because it doesnt fit my argument" It is what it is bro, this thread was pointing out dead space, not HoD or anything else.
Even so, when we compare Hod overkill and Hod 2/3 we see perhaps the genre's fanbase isnt interested in such games on the wii anymore, who knows, its anyones guess why it happened. Dead Space wii to my knowledge was relatively well receieved.

House of the dead 2/3 66 meta 78 user
Its strange as to why its happened, but the sales diminish with release dates moving from HOD 2/3 down to overkill down to dead space rather than sales based on user or critic ratings.
Why this happened is anyones guess but my own, but im inclined to believe that HoD 2/3 sold more because it was at a time when the wii was still in the "wow" timeframe and supply constrained, 2 years after release and sales went down as the wii demographic shifter.
Time crisis still has outsold all but HoD 2/3 even though thats by far the least enjoyable based on user and critic reviews. So its anyone guess, but ive explained my theory.
