IMO Xenoblade did pretty well in Japan, and it has a shot at doing decent numbers in the west to. I doubt that anyone was expecting million sales for this one

 

Monster Hunter Tri is the best-selling home-console MH ever, the issues is, that it cant compete with the PSP versions, and I doubt that Capcom is 100% happy with the sales of this game, because even now, its still not the best selling MH in western territories, and they hoped that more casual games will jump on the MH craze.

 

RS2: bomb, no question about this one. Sorry, but the crappy launch title sold over a million, and this one, that was acclaimed by critics, wont even manage half that amount. I know that Ubi never went to far to advertise this one, but never the less, its a failure.

 

MoM: Nintendo wanted this one to sell ~2.5 million. It will never happen. So yeah, it didnt tank, but it wont live up to the expectations...

 

Boom Blox probably made a nice profit, and I doubt that EA expected far more. Now the sequel... thats a whole different tale.

Source please, for entertainment purposes?

I was expecting million seller for Xenoblade...

Also, yes, I'd like to see your source for the Other M thingy. 

As for Red Steel 2...just remember the original was a launch title...

yes a launch game with maybe half the budget compared to the 2nd one and 3 times more sales at the end of the day.

Even with lowered expectations (weren't the original expectations 1m ?) Red Steel 2 sales are certainly not good at all.

Yes, they were. What I mean is that when the first was released (and released a lot longer ago) there was less choice for people to choode from. It was the only shooter, which promised something new, hence it sold more than the second. People were probably also burned by the poor quality of the original, so skipped the second.
