I think all they needed to sell was around 100,000 copies to break even. It wasn't a very hard game to make. There really isn't a lot to it. Not that that means the game is bad, it just means Capcom found a very smart way to make people think the game was bigger then it actually is.
The game might have cost 1-2 million to make. Definately closer to the low end. So a sequel makes sense. Zack and Wiki could go on to sell 300k copies and make enough to pay for the dev time on both titles. Zack and Wiki 2 sales would be all gravy for them. The second game would be even cheaper then the first to make. They can reuse a ton of the textures, the engine, the sounds... it's pure gold.
However... Capcom should realize that they'd be missing out on their entire fanbase if they bring SF4 to everything but the Wii. Nintendo fans loved SF2 and all it's different revisions. To not bring it to the Wii would be a huge injustice to the game. I believe it could easily sell the most on the Wii. Our gen grew up on these types of games. SF4 is meant for people my age!
Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.
