It could be just me but it seems than Nintendo's franchises aren't selling as well as the previous gen. |
Some of them are selling better, like 3D Mario, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, and Fire Emblem. Others are not selling as well, like NSMB, Brain Age, and Nintendogs.

I dunno - I think Animal Crossing DS sold 5M, Mario Kart DS sold 3M in Japan. Luigi's Mansion wasn't around the previous gen so it's hard to compare. So, yeah, overall, the casuals aren't biting as much.

And you think that Animal Crossing sold 5m the first year?

Mario Kart is indeed not having the same cumulative sales but not that huge gap, and it's doing better if we use global instead of Japan.

Then again we can't really expect 3DS to behave like the DS, the latter was just a monster.
Edit: Oh and PSV reached 1.5m on MC, .....congrats?
