@RolStoppable, i see ratings, AND i see DECLINING SALES IN JAPAN as SMG reached SMS numbers.

SM64 sold around 2 mln. with 5.5 mln. n64 sold in Japan(had strong SNES userbase behind).
SMS did only 0.87 mln. with 4 mln. gc sold in Japan(had only N64 userbase behind).
SMG did only 0.88 mln. with 5 mln. wii sold in Japan(only GC userbase behind).

SMG has a long and bright future, it hasn't even sold half of what it's supposed to sell. =)
Atleast ALL HARDCORE mario fans already bought it in Japan. =]

@Rath,

So Crazzy would you therefore agree that FFXIII has no chance of outselling FFXII by a decent margin, GT5 has no chance of outselling GT4 by a decent margin and MGS4 has no chance of outselling MGS3 by a decent margin?
UNLESS these games will be a NEW STEP in GENRE/GAMING, NO, there won`t be descent margin.
However, FFXIII is definetely a new step with CGI quality graphics. Is that very important? we will see only after FFXIII sales, as a matter of fact new step in controls didn`t helped SMG.
