Normally I'd say Wii easily for a game like this, but the Wii's audience has largely lost interest in all but the biggest titles (Goldeneye, DKCR, Epic Mickey) with smaller titles, even the likes of Kirby and Metroid barely registering.

On top of that, sequels historically due horrid on Wii.  Most casual Wii owners are like, 'been there, done that, why buy the same game again?'  Even SMG2 will never approach the original's sales.  

Yes, Just Dance 2 is an exception, granted.  Dancing games in general seem to be on the rise as the fad catches on.

PS3's user base is too old and too core. 

Makes the winner 360 in my estimation.

I generally like you, but this one post of yours stands for what I don't like about you. I don't agree at all with these observations and it's a good thing that now we finally have a worthy multiplatform game to put these theories to the test.

With the first week results in, it's pretty obvious that games doing bad can't be blamed on the Wii audience, rather its the games themselves being the problem.

Well, the fact that I'm completely wrong (even prior to posting...) just speaks for itself.  Well, not completely.  It's still yet another sequel selling horridly on Wii.  As to why it's selling so bad, that's certainly up to debate. 

The reviews are decent enough.   It's a shame really, deserves better all around.   Mind you, I played the first game, I've no interest in it either.

Pretty much.

There's too much else out ATM for de Blob to get a look in, sadly. Shame really

That's true.  But not on Wii.   There's vertually no competition on Wii and it's still waaay down from De Blob's first week sales.

Virtually no competition on Wii? What would you call Kirby and Donkey Kong?

Old news?  

DKCR has some strong legs but the same can't be said of Kirby.   Mario Sports Mix would be more relevant here but that's hardly a strong competitor either at this point.  

What about pokemon? 3DS?

It's not just Wii games which are fighting it. I had to put off my purchase because of it...
