Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Reggie predicts NSMBW will outsell the 360 version of ModernWarFare2 !

Ok fair enough. I'm not denying the fact that there is a chance I'll be eating a large bowl of crow come Feb but I really do think it's unlikely at this point.

Never the less when Jan NPD comes it will be either me or Reggie that's enjoying their crow.

Your going down Reggie, OH YEAH !!

Okay, I just have an issue with people stating unproven absolutes. I just had a fight with someone over that, even though I agreed on his main points.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Oh Reggie ... better luck next time ;)

Try actually listening to what he said next time. It's not February, so you can't declare this over yet.

I actually read it and know what I'm talking about buddy.

NSMB has 11 weeks right ?

The fastest selling Wii game in a matter of 11 weeks in the Americas is SSMB with 3.5 mil. Outselling MW2 360 in NA is highly unlikely at this point and I do believe that he already lost we are just waiting on Feb to make it official.

He said basically "You gotta give me January NDP". It's not Janurary NPD until it is, buddy. And that only proves that game didn't sell that fast. It doesn't magically mean all Wii games are locked into that.

why NPD ?

Did Regie specify the bet was for US only ?



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

I think it's obvious what's going to happen.. MW2 will sell far more out the gate, but NSMB Wii will have much better legs and remain on the top sellers list while MW2 drops like a rock. Overall I think NSMB should sell around 15 million when it's all said and done. I highly doubt the 360 version of MW2 will sell that much. MAABYE all three versions combined, but even that is kind of a stretch.

Reggie always only talks about America unless he specifically states otherwise.  He only represents Nintendo in America.  Anyways, he did specifically state NPD in this case, which also implies America.  So, it's doubly America only.

Seeing how America is the best territory for MW2 that will only make the bet harder....( NSMBWii will do a lot better in Japan for example).

Yes, but Reggie would also know if Nintendo has any tricks up their sleeve, like a bundle with a Black Wii and NSMBW released in December or January.
