| Carl2291 said: It could also mean that the Wii's Madden audience was maxed at that point. While the PS3's and 360's Madden audience continued to grow. You should also ask yourself, for what reason were the games made cartoony on Wii? And how about FIFA? How's the sales of FIFA been between them? |
The first FIFA sold about 1M copies whereas the sequels, which are more colourful but not cartoony, sold about 800-850K copies. The problem is the first FIFA was a rather weak game and this probably hurt the sequels sales.
In the other hand, PES for Wii is a very good game with graphics aiming at a realistic presentation. The first sold slightly better than FIFA were the sequels flopped. Problem lies in the fact they were released without marketing support several months after the HD versions, about the middle of the European season. Also, VGChartz numbers are underestimated, as they seem not to track the excellent record of PES in Latin America.
