People may have forgotten about this. It was number 3 for the Wii. 

Yeeeeeaaaaah, I forgot about that too, but I don't think it means much. My gut feeling is that the people pirating the game were non-Wii owners who wanted to try it, not NA Wii owners who wanted to buy it. The latter group would simply homebrew their Wii and buy the European version.

Which begs the question, if the pirates weren't willing to shell out under $200 for a Wii to play Xenoblade, would they really pay $300 for a Wii U to play its sequel?


Difference now is that the people have a taste of the game this time around. They would want the game. Before it was just a game people had hyped up and wanted to see what the hype is about. Probably around 10% didn't like the game, and 25% wouldn't buy the sequel.
