| TheLastStarFighter said: Sonic is still - to my surprise - a very significant franchise with potential sales in the 2-4 million range for solo titles, much more when he partners with Mario. Bayonetta isn't nearly as big, but as said, does much more to deversify Nintendo's portfolio. Another 2-3 titles like that would be very fresh. |
I think the Mario & Sonic games capitalized on the mini-game sports craze earlier in the Wii's life span.
I wouldn't count on sales like that again (see Mario & Sonic London Games on 3DS).
