NSMB, soon the best selling mario game ever in Japan?

[Li Mu Bai]

shams said: Its possible - but when you include *all* the versions of SMB that have been released (gameboy advance, etc...) it doesn't stand a chance. Regardless, the sales are extremely impressive - and shows what a good game it is.

Yet he's only referring to one specific platform, the NES. 5million+ is a lock imo, but with so many impressive, as well as high profile titles releasing in '07, (not everything I've listed is, but impressive nonetheless) you must wonder can it continue to sell at this rate? FFXII:Revenant Wings FFCC:RB Dragon Quest IX ASH Subarashii: It's a Wonderful World Phoenix Wright 4 The Other Titles that will Sell: Bimoji Training (Nintendo developed) English training 2 (Nintendo developed) Itadaki Street DS And at what point do the Wii's large software hitters start to eat into NSMB's sales? SPM, DQ:S, SMG, SSB:B, Wii Orchestra, etc.? Or the PS3's MGS4, GT5, MS's occasional traditional jrpg. that breaks 100k. I realize no games can stay within the top 30-50 for as long as Nintendo's does, (years in some cases) which is why I said 5million+ is a lock. But there are other extraneous factors to consider as well. 6.8 in one territory (any territory including NA) is a very, very large number, it would have to sell well into 2008 to eclipse that number. Outselling all FF's & DQs released last gen. & since the PS1 days (FFVII) iirc.
