We have no idea what the sales figures for Tokyo Mirage Sessions are--it is also an entirely different game with a different budget. The Switch version is performing much better--on Wednesday the 26th I checked the Japanese eShop and it was the #1 best seller (I even took a picture to prove it), almost two weeks after release. Not only that, it has been tracking better on numerous chart reports. Physically, the game did slightly worse than the Wii U version on release week in Japan, but digital sales are much higher on Switch than they were on Wii U which more than makes up for that. If anything, the port of TMS being more successful should give them reassurance that The Wonderful 101 port would be beneficial and sell more than the original release. |
TMS probably has no barring on the wonderful 101, remember TMS is a crossover between Fire Emblem and SMT which are two series set to have a bright future on Switch with the former already having a critically acclaim and 2 million copies sold entry on Switch already and the latter having a mainline game in development as an exclusive.
Meaning while Wonder 101 is a new IP that was nowhere near as acclaimed as the Bayonetta games and in fact is one of Platinum's most divisive games.
