Sorry guys, but I find it rather stupid to compare Halo to MKWii. My mom can play MKWii. My mom CANT play Halo. My little sis can play MKWii. My little sis CANT play HALO (though she wants it badly).
What's the point? (other than self-satisfying comments)
Please, someone enlighten me...

 

it is simple, halo 3 had more advertising then Jesus, you would have to be living under a rock not to see a halo commercial, not to mention some TV channel dedicated a whole show to halo, it sold faster than a hooker in a comic convention, it set the bar for all the games in this gen to reach, and now mario kart has almost reached it.

 

Yeah dude. Also, i Phone has an advertisement on TV like every 6 minutes, for 4 weeks. Since the first days of September. Doesn't mean that it should sell to anyone who is watching the commercial!

As long as the demographic appeal for MKWii is 3-4 times bigger than for Halo, the whole thread doesn't make ANY sense. All you Nintendo friends can fancy all you want about something that is COMPLETELY presumable and expected.

I still can't see how a dad with his two kids goin to a shop and say "look boy, there's a game for you! That one where you kill and get killed online for 5 straight hours each day! Woohoo! The dream of any father!"

DONT compare two different things.

we are comparing sales here, thats what this site does, halo 3 is the highest selling non bundled exclusive game this gen, any game that goes close to halo3 will be compared, be it MKWII, high school musical or anyother game, we are comparing sales not demographic or quality of the games, its as simple as that.

 

almost forgot, there are loads of games that appeals to wider audience than halo 3 but none out sold it, that alone makes your appealing to wider audience excuse irrelevant.
