| Soundwave said: Even on the 3DS, the Mario games will likely see a large drop from last generation. Mario Kart 7 is not going to put up Mario Kart DS numbers, and NSMB2 is going to end up nowhere close to NSMB1 (I don't think NSMBU + NSMB2 combined will match NSMB1 actually). Mario definitely benefited by the explosive popularity of things like Brain Training, Nintendogs, Wii Sports, and Wii Fit which brought in lots of casual/fringe players. |
You sure about that? Years 1 and 2 of Mario Kart 7 are higher than Years 1 and 2 of Mario Kart DS. The 3DS still hasn't taken off in America, so maybe another price cut or hardware revision and it could be selling like hot cakes and pick up a Mario Kart 7 along the way.
