Why these hardcore games didn't sell.

[Jumpin]

Truth be told; not enough of a nerdy fanbase on the Wii. Only nerds care about the status of a game or gamer being 'hardcore', while the rest of the world either doesn't know what "hardcore game/gamer" means, doesn't care, or sees the whole idea of a gamer or game being "hardcore" as completely ridiculous. Most gamers want games that look interesting or fun; not games to make them feel hardcore and cool (this is only important to the nerdy type of gamer).
