If the president of Enterbrain is right (game like-games don't sell on the Wii) they will probably bomb just like ToG.

Since I don't live in Japan and that guy knows more about the Japanese market than everyone here, I'l go with what he says.

He was talking about 3rd party games.  These are both Nintendo games, who's "game-like games" tend to smoke everyone else.

Especially Punch-out and Sin & Punishment 2 (sold less than the avarage cave shooter on the 360).

It would say the mainstream Nintendo games

 

Nintendo's "core" RPGs and adventure games have done okay (Super Paper Mario, Fire Emblem, Twilight Princess).  I guess they're all already popular IPs, but then S&P2 and Punch-Out Wii were based on already unpopular IPs. And Fatal Frame Wii is the best selling game in the series...

Point still stands though, he was talking about 3rd party, not Nintendo.
