Ofcourse, this case is quite different, but I highly doubt the true reason is a purely financial one.  I guess it could be also because of bureaucratic reasons (bad sales might be viewed as a failed project to the company heads and/or shareholders, dunno).

Fair point I guess.  Blizzard has quite a reputation, but IDK about this company.  But if it's a good game, then it shouldn't hurt reputation - possibly just them admitting it's not popular in the west maybe.
