Thanks to Rol's awesomeness in knowing forum history... once again I can visually prove that not only was I right all along, but so is Rol!

Core gamers pre-order. Rest of world buys when the[y] see commercials.


This really is no contest individually. NSMB will easily outsell MW2 individually on any other platform. The real grudge match will be if it can outsell MW2 on PS360 combined.

For the holiday season, the ranking is as follows:
1. MW2 360
2. NSMB Wii
3. MW2 PS3

For lifetime sales, NSMB Wii moves to the top spot and beats both versions of MW2 combined.

******************

The thread was actually regarding which game would sell more in Holidays of 2009. You can see what I stated and here's the numbers:
MW2(360): 8.8m
MW2(PS3): 6.3m
NSMBWii: 10m
And thats with NSMBWii having no bundle options that holiday, unlike MW2 which had a 360 bundle, and far less preorders than either version of MW2.

Additionally I'd like to point out LTD:
MW2 (PS360): 22.7m
NSMBWii: 25.4m

So suck it to all those that were wrong in that thread!

Is this PS3 + 360, or ALL consoles as you seem to have implied?

All that VGC counts. Three total PS360/PC.



However, just realized the PC count has to be wrong and since the thread in question was only talking about PS360 I'll edit it to reflect just those counts.

PC sales are likely undertracked here for good reason, but most likely not by 2m. Very nice job for NSMBWii! That's insane that an exclusive title beat out one of the most absolutely hyped and played games of the generation -- one that also released on three major platforms.

 

Long live the Mushroom Kingdom. =)

Actually, I wasn't right. NSMB Wii won the holiday season, so even I underestimated this glorious game. But at least I gave credit where credit is due:

I was going with the right on LTD stance.



So petty.......



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

SuperChunk, you are awesome. Rol... eh... you would be more awesome if you put a Piplup in your Avatar but, alas, you are still quite the "cool kid." Both of you should take on Pachter since Rol already seems to guess things before he even thinks about them.



Good to know how good this game is doing. Had fun with brother and nephew for a long time with this game.
