Never underestamate halo. It can do great do things like beat everyone's asses. Trust me, Mario is not as a huge seller as Halo. And Xbox 360 will release Blue Dragon, Mass Effect, and GTA. That sounds alot better than Metroid, Mario, and Super Smash Bros.

I am not underestimating Halo, but I do think you are underestimating Mario.

Halo - 6.43M
Halo 2 - 7.89M

Mario 64 - 11.89M
Mario Sunshine - 5.9M
New SMB - 9.56

Sunshine didn't do as well, but who's beating who's ass?  Halo is synonymous with Xbox, Mario is synonymous with videogames.
