TheGoldenBoy said: Also, how many times do remakes/remasters beat the originals in sales? |
Hardly ever but its not unheard of. Its easier for Games that sold low to do it (Persona 4 is an example) but very very very rarely for any game to sell over 1mil gets beat by a remake/port.
Nintendo games do have a very remarkable remake ratio however, just looking at MM 3D its probably shipped already 1/3rd of the original with a month on the market.
~OoT 3D is roughly 50%
~WW HD is over 30% by now, maybe close to 50% at end of gen
~Super Mario 64 DS is roughly 90% (and it sold 10mil+)
Now to answer your question^
Kirby Super Star 1.4mil →→→ Kirby Super Star Ultra 2.9mil (more than 200%)
