@Gnizmo,

Name one game that has ever sold 10 million in 4 months. Just one game and I will think you have a point.

6 mln. in first 4 month. +2 in rest time In USA.
atleast 4,5 mln. in first 4 month. +2 mln. in rest time in Europe.

@dtewi,
Those games never had a high attach ratio, mario does. He ALWAYS ranges from 25-40% (the platformer series at least).
That kinda interesting. But these were gamers, not non-gamers which probably will buy wii.
Super Mario 64 DS 5.61m, is like 7%. But ofcourse it`s a handheld, which also have a lot of casual non-gamers.
