| A203D said: i was supprised that Sonic 2 was only at 6mil units, compared to Super Mario Bros 15mil units sold. it does make you think that perhaps Sega was never really that popular, because the software they've sold in comparasion to Nintendo at that time was much less then i orignally thought. |
Sonic 2 in NA sold 5m. The only game that really trounced that in NA was Mario Bros 3. But I have a feeling that in a few seconds someone will post saying that Mario Bros. 3 was bundled (I don't really remember what was for the NES)
So, if that doesn't count, then we have to drop down to Mario Bros 2 which sold 5.4m.
The real difference between Sonic 2 and the to selling NES games is the lack of Japanese sales (highest selling GEN game in Japan only sold 0.31m according to VGC)
