No because Mario 64 wasn't up against much competition on Nintendo 64.

That's not relevant to SMG's performance, which is the controlling factor here.

I think it probably will, but it's not definite.

 

 

I think it is perfectly relevant that from 1996 through 1998 it didn't have to compete against LoZ:OoT (99 for Smash) as a launch game.

2007-8 Wii had Mario Galaxy, Smash, Mario Kart, Zelda....

 

Also in 1996 there weren't all the big franchises like there are today on other consoles. Sonic was already dead.  There was no GTA, Halo, New Final Fantasy, MGS, etc.

@Cougarman: Banjo came out in 98.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
