Super Mario Bros. is currently the best selling video game of all time, and it came out for the Nintendo, which is the best sold Nintendo console ever made.

Best-selling non-bundled is possible (believe it or not, most Mario games have not been bundled, and since Galaxy and the Wii will fly off the shelves like mad separately, there's no economic sense to bundling this one either), but since Nintendogs is at about - what? 15m and still rolling, I sincerely doubt it.
It will sell hotcakes, though. (Oddly enough, i've never purchased a hotcake.)
The past tells other wise. No other game has even come close to defeating Super Mario Bros. in terms of sales. I think Super Mario Galaxy will take the crown.

That supports my belief on Super Mario Galaxy outselling all other video games. If Super Mario Galaxy is the only Mario game on the Wii, than more copies of it will be sold, rather than if it wasn't the only Mario game on the Wii. If Super Mario Bros. was the only Mario game on the Nintendo, it would have sold even more than it did now, but because there were three Mario games on the Nintendo, the sales got divided between the three, unevenly. Galaxy is going to be enormous.
Yes. My game would have sold more, had it been released outside of Japan.

LOL, umm no it has no chance of beating Super Mario Bros.'s sales. About the only game that does is Wii Sports unless they remove it as a pack-in in North America.

Super Mario bros was bundled I thought with the Nes :s.
And no wii sports will be the best selling game.

I'm not sure about this but wasn't Super Mario Bros. bundled with the NES in NA? This would mean that everyone who bought a NES also bought Super Mario Bros., whereas Super Mario galaxy won't be bundled in.
absolutely not. platforming is too niche at this point. non platform gamers might buy it, but it will not be even the best selling game of this generation.
