NSMB Wii was popular. Has it sold consoles? Nope.

So your argument falls flat as it is pressuming SSB is a console seller. As I have said the sales show a minimal increase in sales prior and post release of SSBB.

May I then ask why you don't consider NSMBW a system seller? Would you consider the original NSMB a system seller? What exactly DO you consider a system seller?

To be honest this is where game analystics falls short - NSMBW may have been an after-thought purchase or system seller. Looking at the sales, it looks like it was released during a seasonal climb anyway so it's rather ambigious as to whether it was a system seller or not. However there is at least an increase in sales for a sustained time to a much larger percent than SSB. 

A system seller is obviously a game that sells systems. So one that will help to break a plateu or trend in sales. There's no other description for a system seller that would make sense.
