So they are expecting to sell 1.6 mill units for this year, as trestres says this means there will not be any new big or at least medium (Resident Evil spin off) Wii game for this year.

Breaking down their 1.6 mill estimation

- Monster Hunter 3 (US-Europe) --- 600k-800k
- Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles and Tatsunoko Vs Capcom --- 300k
- Sengoku Basara (Japan) 100k 
- Japan The Best titles --- 100k-150k 
- Other legged worldwide games (Resident Evil 4 Wii and Umbrella Chronicles) --- 100k-150k
- Okami, Resident Evil Archives, Spyborgs (lol) --- 50k-100k

Total: 1250k - 1600k


It is painful to see how Capcom dropped the ball with Wii this year despite an outstanding last fiscal year. This is not understandable from a business perspective. Wii sell (undeservedly) great amounts of third party software, mostly shovelware and crappy niche games like MadWorld and yet they still refuse to support the platform. What it is happening with this platform is beyond my comprehension.
