True, but majorities tend to have more impact on everything, I mean companies chase majorities, and majorities decide success in politics and even direct businesses.  We have new York times bestsellers, not best critics.

Actually that's not true, its called interpolation when you do it within known points "interpolation is a method of constructing new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points"

Mario 64's numbers show that 3D Mario has never had the success of Super Mario, so we can show that to be true.

Most of our measures of what is worthwhile are based on amounts Khuutra, we base things on profits, on sales, on majorities, you can argue that there is some other value that is not measured by numbers, but what bearing does that have on anything that matters?

NSMB Wii will easily surpass MW2, it doesn't matter how fast something sells, in fact selling fast and then droppng off shows that it won't be a classic game, NSMB will both pass it, it'll sell for far longer, possibly even longer than the DS NSMB, that shows a truly great game

We have reached an agreement concerning the fact that there are other value metrics, and we reached it respectfully; that's all I wanted.

As to what else matters? Why, how fun I think it is, of course.

Ah, but even on fun, Super Mario wins over 3D, since more people find it fun, hence its long term appeal and sales.

 

What we have come to agreement, and as your comment proved, is that all relevant value metrics can be determined by numbers, often majorities
