Not to get into this spin cycle again, but really? FABLE (3 million) a stronger exclusive than Melee (7 million) Double Dash (7 million) and Sunshine? (5.5 million)

Halo sold the Xbox, it didn't have any other big movers.

This is actually a very good point. If the Nintendo core fans only allows a console to sell like the GC with software sales as those and for example Zelda WW with 4 millions or DK games only 1 million, then who bought those more millions in almost every core franchise in the Wii installments considering casuals only get WiiSports/Play/Fit/Party?

Zelda WW 4m --> Zelda TP 6m + 1.5m in GC

Sunshine 5.5m --> Galaxy 10m

Melee 7m --> Brawl 11m

MP4 to 7 2-3m --> MP8 8m

DD 7m --> MKWii 33m

DK 1m --> DKCR 5m

The Wii had a bigger install base to work with so I don't know about that one.

Install bases matter little in this case. The appeal of the games drive hardware adoption. Install base only helps games that are too weak to actually sell hardware
