@Kantor, but that's the point Kanotr, 2D Mario games are never exactly the same, they are always different enough to keep people coming back, not to mention, most games don't get played in later years, Iconic games get played in later years, 2D mario games have a tendency to become iconic, which is why people still play SMW and SMB 3 and others, the next console mario will not be the same as NSMB Wii, which is why people will keep coming back to NSMB Wii, while still playing the new one.
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
