Can Halo 3 outsell Super Mario 64?

That should give you your answer.

 

Yep. Because a game on a comparitively limited install base, from a traditionally frontloaded franchise, which was one-upped by a better game in it's genre a matter of weeks after it's release, is totally analogous to a game on a comparitively larger install base, from a traditionally long-legged franchise, which won't be one-upped until at least 2 years after it's release. Good point.

"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
