I'm sorry, did you forget that Twilight Princess is sitting at like 7.2 million sold? Did that escape you?

There's nothing saying that TP was more expensive, in point of fact!

Phantom Hourglass is going to sell "a little bit more" than LttP. Twilight Princess destroyed it. Twilight Princess is going to sell "a little bit more" than Legend of Zelda.

Actually TP is sitting at 6.94 according to VGC

lol, you're actually going to try and argue that N64 Dev costs were higher than Wii Dev costs?

Actually, LttP Snes and GBA combined is over 7.1 million, add in VC sales and its probably a good deal higher, so how did TP destroy it?

Oh, so we're counting re-releases too! Games that have had fifteen years to sell at reduced profit margins!

You have to be joking

Is it not a sale?  Does Nintendo not make money on it?  Also the fact that they still sell, shows that people still want 2D

It's a sale but not a fair comparsion, since TP didn't have the 15 years to sell re-releases at lower prices, and might well get past that mark when it does.

Edit: Also, and unrelated, have you read the last few Iwata Asks? They'd show you that making NSMBW is not such a mundane task. Really, if it was this easy, lots of new, small studios would come with games like this and this good all the time.
