Why don't you go a head and adress the other 3rd party games I mentioned then? How could Ubisoft be happy with Red Steel 2 selling 600k? Or No More Heroes? Truth is, mature 3rd party games on Wii didn't do all that well, especially if you compare it with how well they did on PS360

it is normal to see declines from the same franchises released later. still, those sales should have made a profit. "mature" games sold better on ps360 because they were actually released there. wii sold 2 millions of the old resident evil 4, throwing one or two examples  like red steel and no more heroes isn't enough to say the genres had no audience, just that they weren't exploited properly.

Taking a quick glance at SEVERAL "mature" series, it's easy to see that that statement isn't really true. Ass Creed, CoD, Arkham, are some examples where sequels have done better than the original title. And I've already shown you that mature games were released on Wii, yet they failed to catch on, and not because they were bad (they had good scores).  We've got other examples like Dead Space selling 460k and Medal of Honor Heroes 2 selling 410k. It's quite clear that mature games didn't do very well on Wii, and definetely not as well as on PS360.

Please do explain how the "mature" audience on the Wii wasn't exploited properly, because I fail to see how releasing mature rated games for the system isn't exploiting the audience properly

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
