Looked it up - Metroid Prime sits at 2.83 million, the original at 2.73.

Again, though, you can blame that on bundling if you like.

Eh, i don't like to tack qualifiers on things. Though doesn't that mean that the franchise has never topped 3 million?

Yep. In point of fact, those two are the only games that have ever topped two million:

Obsoiv.

I find it interesting how low Super Metroid ranks tthere, in spite of being so well-loved. Outsold by Corruption, Fusion, a whole mess of games that broke the Metroid formula much more than Super did.

What i find odd was how well Fusion was received in the USA. I thought that was the game that the Japanese had favored.
