| omgwtfbbq said: why would Sunshine be a better comparison than NSMB? DS and Wii are going to have similar user bases, both in terms of size and makeup. Gamecube has a much smaller and more focused user base. NSMB is absolutely the best game to compare galaxy with. |
I had bought into the "ONOZ Galaxy bombs in Japan" story but check this out:
NSMB - 5.07 out of 11.13 million total - 45.55%.
DS - 20.43 out of 58.07 - 48.27%.
45.55/48.27=0.947.
Super Mario Galaxy - 0.46 out of 1.75 million - 26.29%.
Wii - 3.95 out of 15.56 million - 25.39%
26.29/25.39=1.035.
So unless I am doing something wrong with the numbers it looks like Galaxy is just as popular in Japan as NSMB is relative to the console userbase in Japan as opposed to outside it. This is not what I expected to find when I started putting together these numbers ...

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
