I have two bets going, one that NSMBWii will sell 5 million within 6 months and one that it'll sell 11 million in 12 months. I'm a happy boy :P

Who took that bet?

at least a half a dozen people. (the 11 million in a year part, anyway) i'd have to dig up the bet thread to give you names.

I can understand, without seeing any sales, how some people might question the game getting to 11 million, but there was no way a Mario game in the lead up to the holidays wasn't going to get to 5 million.  Wii Music, one of the most hated-on Nintendo games ever released made 2.5 million in 6 months.
