Ah, GH: Aerosmith, classic example of why 3rd parties don't develop for the Wii.

You better have a good reason for waking the dead.

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

ROFFLE!

Biased, uninformed threads will always come back to bite someone in the ass. Nothing ever stays dead here.

What's even more remarkable is that at the time this was posted, the Wii did not have a significant user base advantage over the 360 (less than 1m consoles in America). And yet the Wii version still outsold the 360 version of Guitar Hero Aerosmith with ease... just as everyone who watches the typical sales pattern of these games predicted.

Guitar Hero World Tour Wii (2.56m) has nearly outsold the other two console versions combined (360 = 1.75m, PS3 = 1.04m). Nevertheless, no one seems to be arguing that Activision should drop support of Guitar Hero for the HD platforms because the Wii version sold more... you know, like we hear all the time about certain franchises (Call of Duty, cough cough). I find this interesting on a number of levels.

Although I generally don't like seeing threads necroed, I think it was appropriate here.

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

To understand arsenal009's necropost in context, please visit this thread... 

Or better yet, just this post.

I think it should be understood now given the evidence here and a multitude of other games that Wii sales trends cannot be comapred directly with the HD console sales trends.
