Not bad for DQ10 and Wii, but expected them to be higher. NSMB2 sales are disappointing. I really hope digital sales are huge because it's starting to compare terribly to its bigger brother...

Basically, NSMB FW > NSMB2 3 weeks of sales! Its amazing how the game kept selling 100k+ for 13 consecutive weeks!!!

Next week I think is Obon so everything should be up.

Don't forget that the DS had 2 million more hardware units sold more than the 3DS at the same time. Also take in series fatigue.

Which is Nintendo's fault. Focusing on collecting coins is not interesting, and almost 100% sure people buy it for the platforming, which again, doesn't show anything new.

As someone who hasn't played, but watched the walkthrough (I know, I know) it was dissaponting to see nothing new on level design and worlds looking like DS rather than Wii. Hopefully NSMBU is a true NSMB sequel.

Sadly, I think it's series fatigue. While the game looks fun (coin collecting should add much replay value), the gameplay, levels, graphics, etc are very similar. Are they even taking advantage of 3D?

On NSMBU, I haven't seen much new stuff about beside the pretty graphics. But still new is sparse about this one.
