NSMBWii vs GT5 (AKA I just made a bet, tell me if I'm an idiot)

Chances are that NSMB Wii will eclipse GT5's final lifetime sales within half a year. It truly has the potential to be a megahit like Mario Kart Wii.

That's pretty ballsy.  What kind of numbers are you talking about?  I.e., is your prediction more focused on GT5 being hurt by lower PS3 numbers or NSMBWii just exploding all over the place?  If the reality comes anywhere in the ballpark of TWRoo's upper GT5 expectation (10 mil), that's a pretty high mark to reach in 6 months. 

Well, if Rol thinks NSMB will be a Mario Kart Wii-type explosion, it'll near 10mil without trouble.

Recall that MKWii was pretty supply constrained, not to mention the holidays kicked in shortly after the 26 week period. NSMB is launching right on holiday season. Of course, I don't personally think NSMB will be quite as huge, but it might get close...
