what part is the Wii trolling?

If I quoted it, I would be achieving what I was trying to avoid . Basically calling the sales poor based on its 12 day sales while ignoring that Wii games often have a different sales pattern that HD games, and the usual cherry picking. Let me quote one of the comments to that article:

"Long story short, Wii 3rd party games tend to be very "slow burners". This is a point that goes all too unnoticed by the majority of videogame commentators, bloggers or otherwise. Nearly all of the games in the list above went through the same cycle--they saw very low sales initially which got of all the coverage and bemoaning from commenters before eventually seeing a post-launch surge that went unreported. Now, I'm not necessarily saying that Red Steel 2 WILL be a success eventually, just that it's much too early to draw any conclusions based on the present data, especially considering all of the past games that were slow burners. It would be wise to wait, in other words."

thats not trolling, that is true, they are saying third party games tend to sell low, and have legs.

you can thank piracy for that.

No no no sorry , my bad, the comment I quoted I totally agree with. The trolling part is the part of the article I haven't quoted...
