Despite halo massive sales, it's niche game appealing only to certain market segment, while NSMB:Wii is universal appeal and of legendary fun factor. With 4-player local multiplayer, there is really no reason for NSMB:Wii to stop selling for as long as Wii sells.

Whut?

I am pretty sure FPS are very much the dominant genre at the moment, Platformers have not been a dominant genre since early 3D days. There is no way you can call Halo 3 niche.

 

No way? OK, then try to persuade your mom or uncle to play some Halo with you, and then we can talk about niche. And my point was Mario rather than Halo. If I hurt some feelings (as it looks from some comments) let's just say that NSMB:Wii appeal is much more universal. Much much much much more. Does it sound more confortable so you can agree now?

niche implies small market. The Halo Market (while it may not include grandma and grandpa) is in no way small. By your logic anything not made by Nintendo is Niche
