Wondering if GTA may be a bigger franchise than home console 3D Mario nowadays. That would be quite dangerous for Nintendo.
Sales will no wonder get lower before Mario releases, but my biggest concern is if the boost Mario may generate could be gone after the Holidays. That's what was happening to the Wii during the past 3 years. Sales boosts were all seasonal, and then low during the rest of the year. With the Wii U things are much worse, as the baseline is so low, that the "low" Wii sales are the "high" Wii U sales, so the low Wii ]U sales are actually abysmal.

Bets with Conegamer:
Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.
