I'm not sure really

Football Manager (the soccer sim from SI) sells a million copies world-wide, and it is basically the same game as OOTP but just a different sport. The reason is that in Europe management sims are highly popular (FM always tops the sales charts in the UK), while the US seems to prefer action over strategy (the PC game market in the US is tiny compared to consoles, it's different in Europe). If the gamers in the US would share the passion of Europeans for sims, then I'd be driving a Ferrari... *lol*
