Whoa, 20 million already? That's a lot!

I really hated SatSR. Of all the Wii titles I have bought, it was still my biggest disappointment - and the one title I could never recommend to anyone.

Its unfortunate as well - the game has so much potential - but just enough flaws to ruin the gameplay experience.

...

Apart from this, 20 million sellers is a pretty good start - considering that almost half (?) of them are 3rd-party titles.

Afraid half aren't million sellers. 7 of 20, so 35%. And that is counting Mario and Sonic solely as Sega, even though Nintendo gets most money from it, right?

What might be more shocking, is that in a week, half of those 20 will be 2 million sellers. Half of the million sellers will have sold 2M. That is kind of odd.

Another fact is that it has only 34 Gold sellers.

For a comparison against X360 and Ps3

Wii:

Gold titles: 34
Platinum titles: 20
% of gold that make platinum: 58%
Plasma titles: 10
% of Platinum that makes Plasma: 50%
% of gold that make Plasma: 30%

Ps3:

Gold titles: 20
Platinum sellers: 8
% of Gold that makes Platinum: 40%
Plasma titles: 4
% of Platinum that makes Plasma: 50%
% of gold titles that make Plasma: 20%

X360:
Gold titles: 64
Platinum titles: 34
% of gold that makes platinum: 52%
Plasma titles: 12
% of Platinum that make plasma: 35%
% of gold that makes plasma: 19%

As you see, when a Wii game sells, it sells much more. I don't really know what this means though.

Great news for the Wii.

It means there are lots of people who want to be buy wii games, but not a lot of great games to choose from, so the better games available for the wii do sell really well.

 I agree 100% with what you said.  Worst purchase for me as well.  I got so pissed off at the game that I got a huge migraine like you wouldn't believe and I almost felt like some of those other crazy people who killed because of a game.  This game mad me that angry and I kid you not... :(  

If this game had it's controls, hit detection and level design fixed it would be pretty damn cool.  However as it stands it's just a giant piece of poop.

Be glad you didn't get Snoic for the 360 or PS3.... Their Sonic games were worse than the wii one.

I don't like seeing somebody getting jumped on for stating a general fact. Wether people or not like it their are such things as good, bad and average games. You might not personally agree with every single games average review score but the fact is the majority of the time the majority of people agree about how good or bad a game is. Now all you have to do is look at gamesrankings.com to see the quality of games out for the 3 systems and you'll get an idea where things stand. Taking vgchartz million seller list for each console and then taking the average review score for each game we get this:

x360 - number of games that fall between the following review score brackets:
95-100% - 1
90-95% - 7
85-90% - 10
80-85% - 11
75-80% - 3
70-75% - 2
65-70% - 0
60-65% - 0
55-60% - 0

85% of xbox360's million sellers are rated 80% or above

75% of ps3's million sellers are rated 80% or above

wii - number of games that fall between the following review score brackets:
95-100% - 2
90-95% - 1
85-90% - 4
80-85% - 1
75-80% - 4
70-75% - 1
65-70% - 4
60-65% - 2
55-60% - 1

Let me show you the RELEVANT numbers:

Xbox 360: 32 million sellers score 75% or higher

Wii: 11 million sellers score 75% or higer

PS3: 6 million sellers score 75% or higher

There. Makes the Wii look a lot better, don't it?
