"Following in the success of JV Games' Pong Toss, Pong Toss Pro will be coming exclu.........." see, now I can't trust the info in the press release anymore. They said Pong Toss was successful. Like it was a good game or something. edit@edhe, glad I am not the only one who noticed that
Actually, both of you who mentioned "success" it very much was a success. I'd post a line graph that shows it, but it was by far the best selling WiiWare game that came out July 2008. It stayed in the top 20 for ~30 weeks. That's more than any of their other games.
JV Games' record: Pong Toss - Critically panned, sold extremely well thanks to the audience Incoming! - Horrible critical reception and never appeared in the Top 20 Christmas Clix - Much better critical reception, did not seem to appear on the Top 20 (probably due to puzzle + Christmas theme) Dart Rage - Good to very good critical reception (seen as a very good dart game), sold decently
So, they've probably made Incoming! and CC with the earnings from Pong Toss. it sold a lot, so why not make a sequel? If they can at least eep out the quality of CC and DR with their future concepts, I say let them release this.
Oh god, I thought we destroyed the last of this madness with the last WiiWare quick-buck ping-pong cash-in! But it still lives! LIVES I TELL YOU!!!

I suppose you could also consider Sexy Poker a success?
<looks at his wall of sales-trends>
Yes, I would have to consider it a success, blah. It stayed on the Top 20 the longest out of all August 2009 releases (even outdoing NyxQuest). Of course, being 5 bux and having Gameloft on the cover works.
If you make a dudebro game, you'll get dudebro sales.
