Yes, factors make something happen.  And a big factor is the userbase.  You are more likely to purchase a game if you own the console already.  Releasing a game on the 360 in Japan is a risky proposition because even if the game appeals to a lot of people, a significant portion of that crowd will not purchase the game because they don't own a 360.    So having a small user base is certainly a negative factor.  Conversely, with a large userbase like the Wii has, you won't have as many scenarios like the aforementioned where fans whom the game appeals to don't end up buying the game because they don't own the console.

"likely" also means "potential", not actual. I repeat, if a game has only so much appeal, a larger userbase cannot change that.

So you're saying we shouldn't expect it to do better numbers because it's on the Wii? Please tell me you're joking.
