Do you think the Wii Price Cut has had the desired effect Nintendo wanted?

While it's true that CoD has probably sold the same amount of systems this gen as the original SMB did for the NES and Activision has clearly worked harder at selling systems than MS/Sony (PS3/360 would be in a terrible position without them), 2D Mario has shown it can dominate globally, at home and on the road, off and on for the past 30 years. CoD has a long way to go yet.

Just give it up. They will continue to downplay Super Mario Bros. until the next game hits and when they are confronted with its enormous sales they will say "It's Mario, what else did you expect?", as if you were the one who has no clue.

To ignore Japan and not realise that you're comparing a 2D platformer to the biggest marketing budget gaming phenomena since SMB3 or Pokemon, is strange.
