But you also have to wonder if their expectations for SMG were realistic in the first place ...
Mario Galaxy has sold (to date) half of what Super Mario Sunshine sold in its lifetime and is still chugging along at 30,000+ units per week. Most of Nintendo's best selling games in Japan over the past several years have been games which just continued to sell at a steady rate (like this) for years so it would not be unusual to see SMG pass Mario Sunshine's lifetime sales (or pass 1 Million units sold) sometime in 2008.
