| That Guy said: wait, so a SSBB fan is different than a marioboy then? Whenever WE try to make the distinction, you say "mario mario mario blah blah blah" But when I bring up this point, then you say "oh no, those are SSBB fans, not marioboys" |
You have it all WRONG! Let me step in before Crazzy has a fit trying to explain this AGAIN. ;)
Everyone who bought a GameCube is a Nintendo fan. Who else would buy that purple lunchbox anyway?
Within this select group of individuals, there are subsets. These subsets include, Mariofans, Zeldafans, SuperSmashYouIntheFuckingFaceFans (SSYINFFF for short), MarioKartFans, amoung others. They can (and do) overlap. This idea can (and is) supported through one very distinct and creditable source: game sales. Let's takes a looksy...
- MarioKart DD: 6.6 million
- SSB:M: 6.58 million
- Super Mario Sunshine: 5.91 million
- The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker: 4.38 million
4 games. Total sales - 23.47 million
That's almost 2 million more than the GameCube userbase was. So obviously, only those types of people bought the GameCube, and there's no reason anyone else (besides non-casuals, who only buy WiiSports and WiiPlay, and probably WiiFit, not to mention MP8, RRR, M&S, and about 25 other games that don't count in software sales totals) would buy the Wii, because the Wii doesn't have FF13, MGS4, DMC4, GT5, etc.
Get the POINT? =)
