I doubt that tbh Metroid has never really moved units on any platform, they're right in what they're saying it's a niche series with a loud following this is because Metroid as a game is not very accessible to the tastes of many people. Despite the noise Metroid fans make over the series its just a niche series, an exceptional one yes but still niche, it falls more in the boat of being a game that decorates a library rather then sell consoles. |
Hell, Bayonetta 2 is niche and I think it did a better job at selling Wii U's than Tropical Freeze. I just don't think Tropical Freeze is a game a lot of people look at and think "yup, this is the reason why I'm going to get a Wii U", especially on a console saturated with kid-friendly, side-scrolling platformers.
