RE4 was one of the first test, and the Wii passed with flying colors. Then Okami was declared to be a test right out of the blue. I think Capcom, or at least the people at the top if not the team making the port, didn't want the Wii to pass, so they moved the goalpost to a game they knew wouldn't be a hit, and refused to market it just to be sure. This has been the tactic with "test" game since. |
IIRC Okami Wii actually met shipment expectations (300k), it was Zack & Wiki that didn't early on (no clue what those were though). RE4 Wii and REUC both shattered expectations though... RE4 Wii was expected to sell only 450k (shipped 1.7m), REUC only 600k (shipped 1.2m).
