The popularity of the Digimon IP is very low. Namco Bandai owns the license for video games and they just relased a new PSP Digimon title in Japan on the 17th which netted just 45k first week. That's not a system mover. There's been a new Digimon game on the PSP for the past 2 years and they never light up the charts. Nor did the Digimon games on the DS for the years before that. Only 1 Digimon game has ever sold over 1 million units and that was back in 1999. The next best seller was 600k 1 year later. |
But were these games any good? Cause Pokemon games don't sell only because of the brand, they are awesome games. I'm not saying this Digimon idea is something easy that will generate profit no matter what, but is it feasible? I think so. They'd have to do some work, cooperate with other companies, but it could help them establish a brand targeted at kids. And it's just an idea after all.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
