Mario brothers has been around in some form or fashion since 1980, call of duty since what 2003. What a fair comparison.

It, to me at least, just underscores how well 3rd party titles are doing on the PS/360 compared to their wii counterparts, most 3rd party developers would die to have the numbers that COD is running emulated on the wii.

Nice spin. Apparently Nintendo's ability to keep Mario relevant for so long makes its sales to any IP an "unfair comparison." Let me ask you this, do you think Call of Duty will be more popular in 15 years, than Mario is now?

I have a more direct comparison in mind - what was Modern Warfare 2's budget compared to NSMB Wii?

That's not a fair question. You know that Nintendo was very lazy with NSMB Wii. I heard that a team of twelve people made the game in nine months.

I'm sorry, but I require a source. That would mean the game, which was playable (including the later stages) at the time, had only been in development for a few months prior to its announcement. Excuse me if I don't believe this for a second.

And how was Nintendo "lazy" with NSMB Wii?

You just got played.

To prevent this from happening in the future, whenever you see a thread or post by Rol, just remember one simple phrase: you can't spell troll without rol.

 

 

Anyway...a summation of the events leading up to this thread:

Reggie: "New Super Mario Bros. Wii will deliver."

Geoff: "U THINK IT OUTSELL MODENR WARFARE 2?? MAKE A BET!"

Reggie: "It should outsell at least one version by January's NPD results."

Geoff: "THREEEEE SIXTYYYYYY!!!"

Internet: "OMG REGGIE u R SO STUPID AND OBNOXNIOUS TO CREATE THIS BET MODERN WARFAER IS GOIGN TO PWN MARIOOO!!"

Modern Warfare 2 does not pwn Mario after all.

Thread: "Reggie is about to win the bet."

Sony crowd: "LOL this is so unfair mario is huge u should stop putting it up against little ole modern warfare if u r comparing them ps3 mw2 must be huuuge and spectacular to come close but it doesnt matte because legendary mario shouldn't be compared to mw2 is too big kay"
