that's what happen when you support the wii

And put VCII and III on PSP.....

That's totally false.  Sega does the best on Wii.  Sonic games on Nintendo platforms outsell all other console versions.  Sega has even come out on occasion and publicly stated how happy they are with the success of Sonic and related IP on Wii and DS. 

Sonic Mega Collection and Heroes says thats false statement. And Generations says hey as well.  Funny thing is, they didnt seem to happy about Conduit, Madworld, or HOTDOverkill.

 Thats very low. I bought the three games and while I kind of liked them, anybody waiting a million copies from any of them was just crazy.

The problem with sega is that pretty much all their games failed at retail regardless of the console, (vanquish, Sonic Generations, BD, madworld...) but they didnt care because mario & sonic olimpics was making tons of money for them... And we all know the reason why they sold so much...

Its not low at all, the difference between those HD games and the Wii ones?? The Wii fans hyped the hell out of those games. "anybody waiting a million copies from any fo them was just crazy." Thats funny thats not what some Wii fans were saying before those games released. Conduit got mad hype, people were calling it the Halo for Wii, even on this own website. Madword, im sure people were expecting better. HOTD 2&3 sold about 2mil?? I dont know why an actual orginal game in the series would not do that much, im sure Sega was thinking the same thing.

What bugs me is that everyone now wants to be captain hindsight, like they knew those games would flop. No they didnt, especially Conduit, people were expecting that to go at least 1mil. ANd im sure that Sonic Generations did alright. THe PS360 version combined has already outsold Colors for Wii. 

 Yes, some people were hyping those games nonstop, but thats the thing, how come those games were so overhyped yet they failed at retail? Internet hype is not the same as actual demand. We have seen that happening quite a lot of times, Okami probably been the best example of that. Everybody praised the game, it was released on the most popular console of the moment but at the end of the day the game bombed, then they made a wii version same story. When the wii came out some games saw great sales RE4, REUC, HOTD 2, Red steel... I though we were getting a lot of games after that success, what we got instead? more onrails shooters (That I bought BTW) but nothing more... All the games you mentioned (HOTD:O, madworld & conduit) were published as the hardcore games we were all waiting for... An onrail shooter? Again? A black and white gore fest? The conduit was an special case, I agree that many people overhyped the game, but the main reason was (IMO) that there were no other games to look foward (3rd parties) sales wise all those games bombed though.
