People just want to play sodoku, minigames, and exercise with their Wiis. Just face it people. 2) Piracy is a huge issue. If it weren't for piracy, New Super Mario Bros. Wii would have sold 95 million copies by now. |
Erm...how is Mario Kart Wii a sales failure? Its sold over 21 million copies. And how would NSMB Wii have sold that many when the Wii itself hasnt?
Also you can also say Red Steel 2 has bombed because its the second instalment. If you look at the sales chart all the sequels on the Wii bomb even when their prequel do really well. Red Steel has sold 1.2 million copies, way more than what Red Steel 2 will reach. Similarly the first Shaun White Snowboarding sold around 1.3 million but its sequel has sold only a few hundred thousand. Maybe these arent 'bombs' but their sales suck compared to the original game
