This type of game could be good (if well made, obviously by Midway its NOT) for casual gamers, and at $20 it would easily sell.
Though they are not for me, I can see playing Skeeball and darts and shuffleboard would have appeal for people looking for party games, and especially at the price they are asking. Plus Ihaven't (won't be) playing it, but I can imagine with Midway, the most important aspect in this type of casual game, the controls, would be way off the mark.
A worse side of this arguement is companies gouging prices because a game is on the Wii. Geometry Wars is an amazing game, but not for $40. On the 360 it's $10 if you downlaod it from LIVE. The Wii version has much more content, but no matter, it's a $20 game max.
And another amazing game "Pinball's Greatest Hits : The Willaims Collection" is $14.99 on the PS2, but $29.99 on the Wii. It's WORTH $29.99, but why do Wii owners have to pay double to use a better control configuration for something that is obviously a multi platform release?
Another example, a basic multi-platform puzzle release like Luxor: Pharaoh's Challenge (based off a flash game!) is $19.99 on the PS2, but $39.99 on the Wii. WTF?
And they wonder why these casual games don't sell. $40 for LUXOR? Gimme a break.
