I am really tired to read the "core" games fails on wii... Which AAA core games were put on Wii? They are for most of them just half hearted effort.
Madworld is a niche brawler, with really short playtime and no replay value. It would have bombed in HD too... like Bayonetta did on the HD (they are from the same studio).
The conduit, generic FPS with bland story, bland game art. Yes it would have send millions on HD too if it was publish there.
Red Steel 2 after some customers get burn for the first one, i can understand why the sequel bomb. Also the game get some nasty bugs.
The core gamers were on wii at the start: red steel, R.E. 4, CoD 3 which all are millions sellers... It's just after that it get wrong because no other core games were publish to maintain the core gamers on the wii.
Last for canirval and other party games, for the few that succeed, how many have bomb hard? It's not as the HD fanboy tend to say, party games on wii doesn't mean automatically millions sellers. As some core games bomb hard also on HD twins.
But we must first concentrate ourselves on the way to entertain people, for video games to live. Else, it's a world where sales representative will win, which has as effect to kill creativity. I want to say to the creators all around the world:"Courage, Dare!". Shigeru Miyamoto.
