I hope it doesn't. I've already ordered it anyway and have been following it's progress for a while now. I think it is getting decent publicity and core gamers will know it exists. If it doesn't sell that well it probably just means there aren't enough core gamers. I'd definitely pick De Blob over Wario, which doesn't look anywhere near as appealing. But then I'm 25 so that may have something to do with it.
I'm not sure how many other people agree, but I'm pretty fed up of the lack of hardcore games out there for the Wii, especially from third parties. I became especially annoyed when I read the reason why we wouldn't be receiving a Wii edition of Silent Hill: Homecoming. It's not even annoyance about not getting that particular game, but the fact that we keep missing out, with either no release (Civilisation Evolution) or a watered down release (Rock Band). There is some hope out there, but currently only from people like High Voltage and there upcoming release, The Conduit. I just want to know what other people think about the fact the Wii has a control system so amazing that it's arguably better than the keyboard and mouse (why it's still seen as a gimmick I don't know) and when an amazing game comes along is better than anything else (Res Evil 4, Super Smash Bros etc) but just isn't getting the games. Is anybody else fed up of seeing the games they want to play going to the consoles they don't want to own?
