Yeah obviously DR2 is going to sell poorly, just look at all the Capcom flops on the Wii;)

Well actually Capcom has only had a couple of flops on the Wii, Spyborgs and Deadrising. It's also had a few million sellers. What's more games like Okami, Monster Hunter G and the RE Archive games are just ports and are essentially all profit! Wii development is also rather cheap compared to 360 and PS3 development.

I should imagine the break even point on Wii is substantially less than the break even point on big HD games like Lost Planet 2 and Dead Rising 2. I can imagine that with numbers like these off two franchises that Capcom clearly put a lot of money into and valued highly they will be worried for the future of other franchises.

People like to look at the Wii and call failures, but there have been an awful lot of flops of the other systems too.
