So as of now PSASBR is selling with lots of discounts and its doing good for a new franchise. But SSBB an old game is outselling PSASBR as of now? SSBB sold more copies a couple times since PSASBR release!
Is this a bad thing? Should it be something to be concerned about?

Only thing to discuss is individuals who argued that All-Stars would end up being the top selling fighting game this generation on the HD consoles. It is what it is, a game heavily inspired by Smash Bros, on the Playstation platform using Sony's characters. Yes, it has its own twists, but one would have to ask why what I described would be expected to outsell a flagship franchise on a Nintendo platform with an established base. Did people expect this base to defect to a Sony platform to play a Smash Bros like game using no Nintendo characters?

Nobody expected it to outsell Brawl, but few people really expected the 5 year old Brawl to be outselling a 2 month old game at this point in time. Honestly, this says more about Brawl's incredible legs than it does about PSASBR.

There were individuals that were forecasting sales number for All-Stars at levels that would of placed it as the top selling fighting game on the high def consoles. The high def current gen consoles don't even have fighting games that reach the levels of Brawl actually, but people were predicting over 3 million, which did place it above every other fighting game this generation actually.
