I stand corrected. Not that I trust VGC's numbers slightly, considering by all metrics I've seen STEAM sold much worse than this site indicates. Either way one of these two games had a marketing budget and was supposed to sell. One...one I, as a Nintendo fan, have never heard of. 

 

Edit: Also they matched sales in Japan according to VGC and apparently Captain Rainbow is Japan only, so that doesn't exactly instill confidence in STEAM

I think Nintendo was planning an european release, but they scrapped it. Maybe it was the sales, or maybe because the game was so japanese. But it never came.

That's what I'm reading too. I also found out that Steam sold worse FW in Japan than Rainbow, and that Rainbow sold 20X as much lifetime as VGC shows. So it's closer than we thought, which makes things even sadder for Steam. 



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!
