You can say that all platform sales of CoD this generation sold more than the Wii sales of Mario games, but then you can see how it's pretty unfair to make that comparison. "More popular" is arbitrary to begin with.

SOunds like you are making your own rules. People have different opinions on the matter
|
You can't have your own opinion about popularity. It revolves solely around others. For example: Who is more popular in America, Osama bin Laden or George Takei?
You can't say "I don't know who George Takei is so I think Osama is more popular."

When i ask specifically if something is more popular on home consoles it is pretty specific. It's like Michael Phelps. He is more popular in America than the rest of the world. If i asked the entire world it will recieve different answer rather than me asking if he is more popular in america

No, it is inherently not very specific. You're also not comparing two things, but rather trying to look at what's most popular. Even then, you may be wrong. In some aspects of the word "popular," it would also have to mean that the acknowledgement of this person is positive. Do we really KNOW that Michael Phelps is seen more positively at higher rates than he appears to other countries? The line really blurs even for your question.
Something more similar to the console debate is this:
Which show is more popular: One Piece or Spongebob?
Then you would be like "Let's only look at One Piece viewership in America, and Spongebob viewership world wide. Let's only include live feeds because DVDs and recordings are a different market." Then you come to the conclusion that Spongebob is more popular, currently.
