Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Mario Odyssey is fastest selling Super Mario game ever in US and Europe

No just that, but it seems that SMO suprased even New Super Mario Bros.

"In just five days, the new Super Mario Odyssey video game for the Nintendo Switch system sold more than 1.1 million units in the U.S. alone. That makes it the fastest-selling Super Mario game ever in the U.S., surpassing the New Super Mario Bros. Wii game. Super Mario Odyssey is also the fastest-selling game so far for Nintendo Switch".

Okay ... if this is true then there's almost no way it sold 2 million in 3 days. Right? 

Hows that?

It sold around 1.5m in 3 days in Japan and US, that leaves around 500k for whole Europe and rest of markets.

Yeah I guess so, lol.



Holy fuck! How much did NPD count?



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Very impressive. The game sold to about half of the install base (US) in less than 1 week.

Beating NSMB Wii was no easy feat... yet, it did, despite the huge difference in userbase (8 months vs 3 years, on the market!).

Let's hope they can keep up the momentum.
By end's year, NSMB Wii had already sold 10M worldwide. Now, that's a feat to beat! :)

 

Edit: It even beat the mighty MK Wii (1,084,638)! Again, despite the much smaller userbase.
