since when comparing handheld game sells with Home game is ok?
the auditory is really different.
gba sold 80 mln. and gc only 20 mln.
then of`course, there are possibility, that most marioboys went on hendheld nintendo system and abandoned home nintendo system.
that`s why SMG didn`t have impressive sales compared to SMS.
FAST? yes, BUT only because in those 20 mln. wii owners 30% are mario fans from 21.5 mln. GC.
Otherwise it would sell LESS or much MORE, but not THAT CLOSE.
Yes, game is GREAT, but if it would be bought MOSTLY by new people, it wouldn`t DECLINE so FAST by now.
how many nintendo fans bought wii? yeah, not 85%, but definettely over 30% or 1/3.
By the way, this week SMG in Europe already went from 65k to 50k. It`s DECLINING.
Anyway, need more data. Best to wait next 6-8 weeks, till Wii reach GC user base.
