31 titels that have sold over 1 million copies – All 3rd party games

I dont know about the rest of you but for the companies that have been saying that you can't sell 3rd party games on the Wii maybe this will help them to better understand. What do the rest of you think?

the wii has actually more third-party million sellers than the all PS3 million sellers, first-party included.

BUT

inb4biggeruserbase=moremillionsellerzzz

"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

The excuse is, with such a big userbase, the Wii should be able to do that easily.

@OP: You're clearly incorrect, as fanboys on the internet are never wrong.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I think it do do it easily, They both came out right around the same time. The Wii has 10 more million sellers than the PS3 and it took a long time for 3rd party developers to even jump on board with the Wii. Just think if they would have had 3rd party support right from the start.
