This is trolling. He just wants us to reply to try to convince him he's wrong. It's not that he "knows" he's right. He doesn't really think it in the first place. It's classic trolling.

I bought MadWorld, I really didn't like it. I felt like this game wasn't made for someone in their late 20's, but rather someone in their mid-teens who like playing as steroid pumped psychopaths in a repetitive game while listening to abrasive rap-metal music.

I didn't get the Conduit, but I actually did quite enjoy House of the Dead Overkill.

Or maybe you just don't WANT them to make money on these games.. Because I see no evidence that what you say is true. Sega only said that Sales for Madworld weren't quite as good as they hoped, but that Conduit is a success. Not to mention with the recent price drop, Mad World's sales have risen. Wii games are generally relatively cheap to make.. I HIGHLY doubt they've ended up losing money on these projects.

Even if they did, they've already stated they plan on continuing to make these types of games on Wii in the future, so does it really matter? Devs lose tons of cash on many high budget PS360 games, but no one seems to care about that...

"Devs lose tons of cash on many high budget PS360 games, but no one seems to care about that..."

Except those developers themselves, who've been doing a lot of changes than the way they handled things at the start of this gen.

Let's just think this out for a moment from what is known.

1. Companies generally have to be truthful about profit/loss. So while the producer is using code words that do not reveal real details, the tone has to have some basis in reality or there could be legal issues.

2. The investment for Wii games is generally less than the investment for Xbox 360 or PS3 games. Thus, profitability can come at lower numbers.

3. The investment for a publisher-only may be much less than that for a developer or develop-publisher. So profitability can come at lower numbers.

4. Sega may be viewing this as a long-term, build-an-audience proposition. If that is the case, it may be as interested in rate of sales and total sales than in profitability.

5. Remember that much of the Madworld sales came after a price drop while the Conduit is still full-priced. This means the Conduit may have generated more revenue despite lower sales currently.

That makes sense.

No it's not because I actually don't care.
