I don't think it is a moot point.  CoD on Ps2 only sold a couple million units because it was new to the userbase.  It's the situation on Nintendo consoles.  Regardless of what a game gets reviewed, if you have no connection to it  your connection has always been negative/dissapointing) you're not likely going to buy it.  If you're disspointed in the first iteration of anything, you're not going to buy the sequel (let alone take time to care about it's reviews)

Third parties won't just randomly end up with a userbase to sell to, they have to foster it.  It's no different than any other product in the world.  Movies don't just sell well because they are highly rated.  A lot of highly rated movies don't sell well at all.  A lot of poorly rated movies sell great.  It all depends on if the studio promotes and fosters interest in their product.  Third parties have done a great job promoting and fostering interest in their product on Sony and Microsoft platforms - not so much on Nintendos.  Blaming the consumer for that is outrageous.  Blame Nintendo if you want (it's partly their fault), but to pretend 3rd parties didn't have a hand in it is nothing more than wilfull ignorance. 

You mean fostering, like for example putting out exclusive software out on the console like Platinum games? Cause that worked perfectly like I've said in another post. I have explained myself more than once in this thread and I won't do it again, read what I wrote and if you still disagree with me after that, then so be it.
