see, that makes alot more sense than what the other guy said. I read a comment but Miyamoto? i believe and he was the one who said that whole if a game doesnt sell at least a mil its a flop for them. It was in regards to WarioShake at the time. Ill try to find it again.

Here's the story I am talking about which is probably the same you are thinking about. Originally it was reported that Reggie meant the opposite and a lot of websites ran with it without using any common sense. Kotaku shows its anti-Wii bias, but they at least posted an update to the story which is more than others did.

that actually was not the article i was talking about, and to be honest, the update didnt really clear anything up. It sounds to me that REggie put his foot in his mouth. 

But its insane to think that a Wii game or any game has to sell a mil to profit. Okami did not have to sell as much as Red Steel 2 to profit
