CoD sells like 20mil (say 10 mil per console) right now - If a CoD-like game sold 20-30 mil on all three consoles then it would be 10mil per console whereas Mario would sell something like 20-25mil, thus remaining king of the console

No, Activision would sell 20-25m copies of the game, thus remaining king. If a CoD sized franchise sold 20-25m on one console it would win. Mario maybe to the king of exclusive console games, but not the king of console games

If a game sold that much on a single console it wouldn't be a CoD sized franchise, it'd be a mario sized one

But yeah, I get what you're trying to say, but let me say this: An exlusive selling over 20mil is much more impressive than a multiplat selling about the same amount, wouldn't you agree?

Not really, from the publshers perspective it is probably the same, especially as CoD has a higher price than Mario
