no but if you look at the games that sold alot were bundled older games. and the usual suspects Just Dance and Skylanders. That is a contrast to say the HD twins which sold more games (seperately) newer games, not as many of them were bundled. Not saying no one buys games on WIi just not as much as the other two. At not as much titles.

I wasn't comparing to the HD twins, I was simply commenting that Wii games still move units despite the conventional internet "wisdom" that nobody even touches their Wii any more. (No inyourendo intended ;) )

 

Now that global's up, we see Skylanders Wii did best worldwide as well.

Never argued otherwise. 

As for Skylanders that was my point when i said "usual suspects"

I don't think sales are in any way invalidated when the games in question are family-orientated.



Decent but unimpressive week. Sony needs to push PSV outside of Japan too. Ninty needs to do the opposite with Wii U, push it more also in Japan: if it saves it there too, it will be fine and out of danger, although smallish, compared to Wii.

??? wasnt trying to invalidate anything, quite the opposite. Hell you said it for me, the fact that those games are family oriented was one of my points.
