But also note that Nintendo released possibly the biggest exclusive game game of the year (2007, please dont bring up games in 2008) across all consoles that month which was Mario Galaxy. This is like the September month to Xbox 360 with Halo 3. In that sense, I dont think it did outstanding at all for software. It should have blown the competion away by miles.

For the most part, Nintendo's biggest games are not instant successes; there sales typically grow over years to become some of the best selling games of the generation. A year after its release, The Legend of Zelda sold (roughly) 100,000 units in November. Two years from now, Super Mario Galaxy will still be in the top 100 games sold on any given week.
