I wonder how this will sell in comparison to Super Mario 3D Land. Will they be competitors in terms of sales? Considering how well Super Mario 3D Land is selling, it's entirely possible New Super Mario Bros 3DS won't be able to outsell it. Consider that after 22 weeks in America, NSMB DS had sold 1.35 million (out of 6.3 million DS sold) and that Super Mario 3D Land has sold 2.3 million in 22 weeks (out of 5 million 3DS sold). Granted, 3D Land has had a holiday season, but it's still performing just as well as NSMB DS, if not better.

It's similar in Europe, although the difference is slightly smaller (1.5 million vs 1.1 million, with 5m 3DSes vs 7 million DSes).

I'd say 3D Land has a decent chance of selling more than NSMB 3DS, which is something I'd never have expected before 3D Land launched.
