When a port of a 2 year old game sells better than the original did, that means something. I won't venture to say what it means, but generally speaking, that's not normal.

Indeed!

 

[PS2] Monster Hunter G (Capcom) 232,239

[Wii] Monster Hunter G (Capcom) 236,020

 

 

...clearly, this must mean something!

Monster Hunter IS better suited for the Wii market.

By the same assessment, games like NMH are better suited for the PS3 and Xbox 360, without even lumping both platforms together and claiming it sold over 2X as much for a 2+ year old game.

Isn't this what most people have been saying here?

At least those who aren't trying to shift the argument to claim that a couple of ports cost more than the original game, making the original a better commercial success, making it better suited for the Wii platform?
