AC New Leaf is ahead in japan by a huge margin. AC New leaf might be in the top 10 most sold games ever in japan. Luigi's Mansion 2 is about to track over the original. MK7 is doing extremely well. It surpassed other MK right? It wont surpass DS version but does that mean its not selling no more? Come on, if every title had to surpass the one before than almost every game would be considered declining

SM3DW is doing great as well, it will surpass SM64DS. MH4 is doing extremely well. It'll at LEAST be 2nd highest of all MH in japan lifetime. I know we made a bet on it. Pokemon XY will sell more than your prediction lifetime, im not worried.


1. AC:NL may be ahead in Japan but the drop in other regions means that the sales dropped massively from WW to NL.

2. Good to see that you agree that it won't surpass the DS version. That's another example of sales dropping on a franchise.

3. It's great that SM3DW will surpass SM64DS - a port of an N64 game. How is doing compared to NSMB (DS) though?

4. As of right now, MH4 isn't in the Top 2 yet in Japan. We will see about that in the future.



To all your Statements 1. AC new leaf is ahead in every region, so wat are you talking about? Even without digital its ahead. I think the problem is your looking at WW. AC wild world launch in US at around the same time as japan. This means obviously WW sales are ahead. But line up every region, AC on 3ds is winning. Remember digital sales are big with AC. Here you go... http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/game_comparison.php?reg=USA&ending=Cumulative&game%5B%5D=Animal+Crossing%3A+New+Leaf+%283DS%29+%5B71137%5D&game%5B%5D=Animal+Crossing%3A+Wild+World+%28DS%29+%5B82%5D&game%5B%5D=&game%5B%5D=

2. Dropping Franchises? Really? How much Do you expect It to sell when the user base is 30mil vs 150mil? Think of attach ratios. lots of games are doing good with a 30mil user base. Vita hasn't sold nothing yet AC liberation has a great attach ratio. Its not a multi mil seller right? so is the franchise going down? of course not. Obviously not alll 3ds games are going to be as high as ds games simply because of user base. MK7 is a huge success. Brain Age is wat you call a decline franchise, even Nintendogs+cats even though it sold over 3mil.

3. Just cuz it has the name mario in it doesn't mean its the same just like you pointed our SM64DS isnt. NSMB2 is the comparable game. And yes NSMB was such a major success. You do realize some games your mentioning are in the top 10 highest selling games of all time right? You really think every successor is suppose to outsell it?

4. Yes we will see... Last thing. Your going to regret pokemon's 12mil prediction. Its going to be fun reminding you lol
