Etertnal Sonata was a new IP JRPG, yet it sold less across both PS3 and 360 than Xenoblade sold on just Wii, which was also a new IP and  a JRPG. And Endless Ocean was a niche game; many even went as far as claiming it didn't qualify as a "game" at all.

You're acting as if PS3/360 gamers never neglect new IPs in favour of established brands, but this simply isn't the case when you see something like Vanquish get outsold by more than 20:1 by COD 10.

and Ni No kuni sold better than Xenoblade. whats your point?

Never said that. You keep avoiding what im saying. Sony and MS gamers embrace new IPs moreso than Ninty ones, prove me wrong.

My point is, there's no need to amend my statement to "Nintendo gamers avoid new IPs" when non-Nintendo gamers also tend to stick to known brands. It's true as it stands that gamers in general will usually choose established franchises over new ones.
