Oh calling it a flop is an exageration though. It didnt perform as good as expectated but it was still a sucess.

Spot on. Seeing as how the game likely made a lot of profit, I don't see how it's not a success, or how it's a failure.

Haven't we been over this? If Capcom had to cut its revenue projections because of this game's performance, then it's a failure. Much like Wii Music was almost definitely a failure even though it almost definitely scored a healthy net profit for Nintendo.

Doesn't that mean wii-u's a flop? By that definition.

Different with consoles because of a longer lifespan and more grand-strategy stuff (you may not have met your own financial projections, but did outmaneuver competitors, etc.), while most games have largely burnt themselves out by the first financial reporting period.
