What the sales of Sega's big 3 tell us about the Wii

TVGB: "Of all the publishers currently selling titles for the Wii, it was Sega who perhaps took the biggest risk by publishing 3 decidedly hardcore games on the console. Of the trio, the gratuitously violent and cel-shaded MadWorld seemed the title most likely to flop at retail, and Overkill, a new edition to the House of the Dead series (which had already seen success on the console), seemed the most likely to succeed. The Conduit's success seemed largely dependent upon how well it would be reviewed by the gaming media - mainly because it was a new IP from a developer with a questionable track record. So how well did these titles sell, and what does it tell us about the market for traditional games on the Wii?" (MadWorld, The Conduit, The House of the Dead: Overkill, Wii)
