Saw it on IGN http://wii.ign.com/articles/112/1128470p1.html Krome closed its doors and it's yet another developer that has went down this gen, these guys actually put out some fun games, nothing that was AAA gold but anyone that played the PSP or Wii versions of Force Unleashed knows these guys can make something worthwhile, their version was in development for less than half the time the Lucas Arts product was in development for and still came out better in the end, but having a hit with that game wasn't enough to save them this gen.

I'm guessing their more recent titles are what did them in since nothing since Star Wars Lightsaber Duels on Wii has sold over a million copies, you have a couple that made it to 500k but everything else is below that.

If you want to check out their titles/sales you can check them out here http://gamrreview.vgchartz.com/browse.php?name=&keyword=&console=&region=All&developer=Krome Studios&publisher=&genre=&boxart=Both&results=50&order=Total Sales

They are the studio Microsoft contracted to work on the Game Room project.  Since released Game Room has been a mixed bag of good and not good.  As a retro fan who likes Game Room (cool features, despite the issues), I hope it is still able to stay up, and get more content for it.  The introduction of bundle packs (get 5 Konami arcade games for $10 or 15 or $15, hopefully gets sales going, and has more publishers signing on)

I would say Blade Kitten didn't do sales they needed, and also the they did a movie game contract, which also gives hints they were hurtning.
