| Barozi said: yeah but the HUGE difference is that Donkey Kong and Mario are Nintendo franchises and the others are not. Street Fighter and MK have splitted their fan bases a loooong time ago. If so why didn't Goldeneye or any other FPS (CoD) on the Wii sell as good as Goldeneye on the N64 ? Probably the most successful console for FPS at that time. Simply because the fanbase went elsewhere and this is also true for Beat'em Up and Racing fans that don't involve Nintendo characters. I'd agree if the Wii was a direct successor to the SNES, but it's not, not even close. Would they sell decently on Wii ? pretty sure yes, but none of them would beat their PS3 or 360 counterpart. |
Goldeneye was also the first Wii FPS on the Wii that was even comparable to the FPS on the other systems. Had that not been the case, the game would have sold better.
The audience didn't leave for no reason. They were given no option to play those games on the Wii.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
