There is just so much wrong with this post. First, N64 had more users than GC, thus it's sales should be higher. And guess what, THEY ARE. So, using the same logic, SSB:B will have more sales than the other two because the userbase will be higher.
N64 - nintendo fans + casual gamers
GC - nintendo fans + casual gamers
Wii - nintendo fans + casual gamers + casual non-gamers
casual gamers =/= casual non-gamers.
MOST CASUAL GAMERS DON`T BUY SMG, THEY BUY WII SPORT/WII PLAY. Kapish?
And what about Ratchet and Clank? Is it not a brand name game?
1) It`s not BIG BRAND game. 2) Do you have first week sales numbers of Ratchet PS2?Similar userbase + similar sales = game bought my mostly mariofans. Interesting. I would think that similar userbase would automatically equal similar sales.
NO, NOT IN WII CASE.
SAME MARIOBOYS + SAME/NEW casual games + NEW casual NON-GAMERS.
SAME marioboys make considerably HIGH FIRST week sales of mario game.
NEW casual NON-gamers practically have NO effect on sales of nintendo BRAND games.
