Far from conclusive but fair enough.  In my opinion, the issues with MDK2 are:

A) The name - Unlike most WW shooters where it's clear from the name it's a shooter, absolutely nothing can be derived from MDK2.   This is compounded by the less than adequate write-up and pics in the Wii Shop channel.   Even a look at the cover or a couple images fail to convey what the game is.  Worse, it's not really a shooter in the traditional sense.

B) Timing - Most Wii owners who might like this game (IE: know what it is) have moved onto HD systems and are not checking WW for anything like this anymore.  Also predominately, Wii is a dancing game system nowadays with Just Dance and Zumba being the only titles selling consistantly well.   These new Wii owners couldnt care less about MDK2.  WW is also flooded with tons of titles now making it easy to get overlooked.

C) Price - If this was priced at $15 (which I suspect to keep it in line with PC but I haven't checked that), that's a hard sell on WW where most titles are $5-$10.  World of Goo did it, but WoG got lots of great press, FF did it, but it's FF!.   Again, by the time MDK2 came out, very few sites were bothering to review WW games anymore so no press and few reviews to justify that price.

D) Lack of marketing - They were probably overconfident in the license.  MDK2 was never that big to begin with and Wii's audience is mainly casual.  To expect enough people to know the game from it's glory days and want to buy it again was perhaps misguided.  Probably on any console but especially Wii.   However a WW demo would probably do wonders for their sales.   Wonder why they haven't tried that instead of whining like cry babies.

i agree they should only post articles of devs praising nintendo

And I agree with others that they'll get the biggest sales boost of their lives from all this media play the game is finally getting.   Had they done some marketing to start with, they'd have hit the 6k threshold long ago.

C) It was 1000 points or about $10.

D) This is the biggest issue.  Few people even knew the game was ocming until it was already out which is very different from most other WiiWare titles.  I'm in the media myself and baely knew it was coming and no one I know of in the industry was hit up by anyone from their PR firm to review the game.  Again, that's difernt from most other games as my staff and most media outlets are constantly bombarded with requests to view all manor of games (WiiWare included).

Facetious?

Doubt it. Lyrikalstylez has a history of Nintendo trolling.
