What about those who bought a Wii for Zelda, for Metroid, for Brawl?
Metroid Prime GC 2.77m -> game bought by metroid fans and other gamers.
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes GC 1.28m -> game practically bought only by metroid prime fans.
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Wii 1.12m - game practically bought only by metroid prime fans.
@hsrob, cooincidence?
Are metroid fans also mario fans, unknown, just like we don`t know if mgs or ff fans also are a GT fans.
And, I even know a guy who wants a Wii for Monster Hunter 3 alone. And I am currently only talking about games that appeal to core gamers not the casuals.
That doesn`t change statement(probablility), that atleast 30% or 1/3 TODAY`s Wii userbase are mariofans.

"marioboys" = mariofans. Guys which buy allmost all mario games.
