So far only Bayonetta seems to have done okay - although arguably Vanquish might have legs.

Overall though I think their output's been a bit questionable in terms of approach:

1 - madworld I think should have been on HD consoles as well.  Silly to confine a game with that style to Wii.  Quality was okay.

2 - Bayonetta should never for a moment been developed specifically for 360 and despite Sega delivering a rushed port that port saw more sales on the obvious platform for the game - PS3

3 - Vanquish quality is good but I think the basic narrative but the basic mix of stylistics didn't resonate and I think that it lacked a real hook compared to say Bayonetta which easily stood out.

 

In short, I think they need to think a lot more about the platform they're releasing on and whether their game really suits it or not from a demographic/style point of view.

1. i think Madworld did well, half a mil is reasonably good for that type of game on the wii. they should port it to PS3 like konami are doing with No More Heros imo.

2. Agreed, but i thought it was Platinum who handled the port not Sega, i thought Sega only published the game.

3. imo Vanquish is a medoicure game, they shouldve done more research into western shooters imo, it had the potential to be a lot better imo.
