I just did some more analysis: for the Wii, there is precisely one game above 83 on metacritic for the Wii that has not sold a million copies thus far, and that game is Zack and Wiki (which I think everyone acknowledged as a niche title to begin with. Should have sold better, but a million was NEVER in the cards). That's from any publisher, although shockingly, amazingly, 5 of the 8 games with scores above 83 are made by Nintendo itself.

Seriously, what kind of track record is that? Only ONE game with a score above 83 has failed to sell at least a million copies on a system where development costs should be much lower, and yet we see very little serious development on the platform thus far.
