*Looks at Op..... You could of just ask what will SM3DW sell lifetime -_-
It looks great, its not suppose to be a Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy 3D game. As I stated in another thread, this game is actually a 2D style platformer played in 3D. Notice how everything is practically plays as NSMB series? Except in a 3D environment?
Imo this game should do well. Higher install base it can do a couple million. As of now and if WiiU only sells 18-23mil lifetime then this game will easily do 4million+. I dont think anybody should underestimate this game, its not NSMBU (which they brought out too soon especially with NSMB2 a couple months before it!)
4mil-8mil lifetime, depending on WiiU user base. Mark my words a Mario Galaxy 3/Universe will come in 2-3 years (at least annnounce). People get SM3DL/SM3DW mixed up with them
