I think its selling faster than every game ever made.

MW2, 13 million in the same timeframe.

It will probably be the fastest to reach 20 million though.

Although among two consoles, and with the most expensive launch ever. Although that's not a knock on the sales as much as Activision blowing that much just for a big PR point.

Important to note 2 consoles that combined have ALMOST the same install base as the Wii itself so that comparison is null. I guarantee 60 million 360's sold would have that same number if not more (since the xbox brand is more known for its shooters).

I'm not going to deny direct competition has likely caused the sales split for the HD consoles, but again, Nintendo didn't have to buy the opening week numbers.

You think NSMB would have sold anywhere near as fast as it did if it didn't launch during the holidays with plenty of advertising and the stongest brand power in the industry on the most popular console of all time?

Really, it's stupid saying bu-bu-but this or that. Facts are facts. MW2 is the fastest selling game of all time. NSMB will break plenty of record of its own. It already has 6 consecutive weeks over a million and that's just as impressive.
