Gamelion and SkyZone Entertainment announced today that Extreme Hangman is the best selling DSiWare game. The word-guessing game is available on the Nintendo DSi Shop for the equivalent of $2.00.
“I think the success is attributable to having the right title targeted at the proper demographic group of casual gamers,” said Key N. Sar, Chief Marketing Officer and Business Development, SkyZone Entertainment. “We couldn’t be more pleased with our first foray outside of the traditional mobile phone platform.”
“We and our partner, Skyzone, are very happy with the results thus far and will continue to collaborate jointly on more Nintendo DSiWare products in the coming years.” Said Sebastian Szczygiel, Vice President, Gamelion.

What is most interesting about this is that I played (and reviewed!) Extreme Hangman for mobile phones years ago. I think in 2006 or 2007. I think it was a modest success but never set the world on fire.
Sometimes you might have the right product but the wrong medium. The game wasn't able to break through the mobile phone noise.

I can't wait to see how Zombie Panic turns out. Next to MM 10 it's one of my most anticpated WW titles.
