Yes EA is proof that every HD developer is making a loss, because every game regardless of how it sells is a loss, because it doesnt matter that EAs business might be inefficient and investing in too many titles at once and that EA are expecting their money back way soon, or that they might have too many studios.:roll:

So Sheep, do Wii games cost nothing to make, or Cooking Mama just a really high-end game?

They're gonna take those losses like champs and support the real market regardless. Wii casuals are so random that they don't know what will sell.

I thought other fanboys didn't care about sales. lol And I've noticed it's only okay to cite VGChartz when it's to an advantage,but not when someone else uses it.

Backpedal? I'd have to initiate a debate for that to happen. lol You say only sheep care about sales, and then go on and make a thread about sales. I don't care to debate anything with you, I just found that funny. Have a nice day.

You just don't know what you're talking about, do you? They might have had a loss in the 4th quarter, but if you look for the year, they actually made profit. Just wait for EA's fiscal report. You'll see that they lost money in the 4th quarter AND they'll have a loss for the entire year. Seriously, with every post about sales and numbers, you keep showing just how little you know.

And yet they made a loss therefore it must mean its the end of the world!

2007 they made a loss and thats when Cooking Mama had its strongest sales. Yep a single year of loss on a single platform despite high sales must mean all developers should jump ship, they sure as have for the PS3 and 360, thats why nobody makes games for them anymore, it only took 2 years...

Sometimes games dont sell, and rightly so, dont you think that might just cost you money? Offcourse, a bad game failing on the Wii doesnt cost money does it?

And once again, you don't look at the entire picture. They might have lost money in 2007, but they were still restructuring their company to completely support the Wii, and they succeeded as they posted a profit this year. The same cannot be said about EA who has had 2 consecutive years of losing profits. This is why you've become a joke poster when it comes to sales and numbers. You're so hung up on trying to demean the Wii that you're not taking the time to actually look at the numbers and interpret what they mean. Even in the last thread about the rumors of EA shutting down a branch of Pandemic we see just how poor you've analyzed that situation. Seriously, just leave the sales and number talks to the big boys and you go play in the corner with your favorite system.

Right its always an exception for Nintendo! Oh and whats this that you say about the last thread? I was just blaming HD consoles for their closure, isnt that what you blamed FRD and Factor 5 demise on!:lol: I was doing it on purpose, to you EA is everything against HD consoles profits, lets ignore everything thats happening internally and the fact that ZOMG, different devs are different and not all are EA.:shock:
