This is going to make Michael-5 sad. Curious to see what this will sell. The series did rather well considering the GC install base.

Did decent since the first game sold 1.63m and 1.20 for the second.  I am more curious what Luigi's Mansion 2 on 3DS will sell considering the first one sold ~3.6m (with the help of being a launch title and no Mario).  Pikmin 3 should probably end up around 2-3m tops lifetime.

How does no Mario help?
