-1- my original post excluded dance/fitness/platformers/party games.

-2- im saying that since all wii 3rd party games in those particular genres sell within a range of 200k to 1.5 million then thats terrible.

-3- wow you fail again to percieve my point. i never expected wii games to sell that much. im going back to god of war. not all 3rd party or 1st party games sold 3 to 4 million on the ps2(god of wars's sales)  hence his god of war arguement is useless because i was talking about all 3rd party wii games in a certain genre and how they sell in within a certain range.

I think this might be it. Whether it's the wording of your sentences, or me being so busy these days, I can't seem to get what you keep trying to say

Anyways, the fact is Wii software sales >> anyone else - No point arguing that

How much sales did you expect from the games in the OP? more apropriately, how many sales would it take for you to call them "good"?

Please read this, and then tell me if you still think these sales are terrible, given the perception these publishers have created for themselves...

If anything, I'd say these numbers are indicative of a changing trend.



Until you've played it, every game is a system seller!

I should add that profits for those games was also likely much higher, considring the lower costs.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
