1) Um, what? SMW sold about the same as SMB3, both about half of what SMB sold. SM64 sold half of what either SMW and SMB3 sold, so only about 25 % of what SMB did. If you want to count SM64 as a main series Mario game, it's a damn failure, because it performed even worse than the original SMB2.

2) It's not my problem, if you can't read.


@1. Your bringing in SMB2 is utter fail, and you know why, and the reason is Doki Doki panic. Not only is it not a mainline mario game, it isn't a mario game. Geez.

SM64 did 25% of SMB, in line with 50% of SMW, and SMW being 50% of SMB. I'm considering the best metric. First mainline Mario game for the system (this removes the SMB3 doubt of being a sequel on the same platform).

My numbers are fine, your denial isn't.

2) If I couldn't read, I wouldn't be able to write coherently. It's your problem. Why am I wasting my time trying to convince myself of anything. You're totally out of whack. Not always, but here you clearly are.

1) I bolded it for you. You can't read. Super Mario Bros. 2 sold 2.65m copies in Japan. I expect an apology.

SMW maintained the sales of SMB3 after the phenomenon that was SMB while SM64 showed a notable drop compared to the established baseline after the dust had settled.

It's not me who is in denial.

2) Reading comprehension and coherent writing are two different things. Being capable of one doesn't mean that you are capable of the other. Another try, reposting my answer again:

"I would put that number at zero. Zero more N64s would have been sold, if Super Mario 64 had been bundled with the system. But obviously there would have been more copies of Super Mario 64 in the market.

Yet you keep insulting me by saying that I am denying that more copies of Super Mario 64 would have been in circulation. I expect an apology.

Apology twice over.

You didn't say I had poor reading comprehension. You said I couldn't read.

I also expect apology for being so ambiguous. Baiting me is not helping me understand you wrong. How could I even make sense of these two put together?

"I would put that number at zero. Zero more N64s would have been sold, if Super Mario 64 had been bundled with the system. But obviously there would have been more copies of Super Mario 64 in the market.

ADDED: How does underlined counter the argument I later provided? Would they have been on store shelves?? Be clear.


And you have many things to apologize for which I've never asked for apology. You can give me a nice BIG one once you've figured it out.
