This cant be a serious question....can it?

The wii has DOUBLE the hardware base of the PS3

Brawl will trounce it

Thats not to say MGS4 wont be a big hit but...you could have picked a more reasonable opponent

Brawl would trounce it regardless of userbase.

The Smash Bros series just has way more appeal in America and Japan than Metal Gear Solid will ever have.

 

 

Though ironically MGS1 outside SSB and MGS2 outsold SSBM each by about a million.

The Konami hype machine can do wonders and is much more powerful than the hype Nintendo builds for their games. MGS4's budget has already surpassed 80 million, it would be expected that they will push this game VERY heavily.

I'm looking at Vgchartz's figures and they say differently.

The Metal Gear series has actually been decreasing in popularity (although it could be boosted by its latest iteration) whereas the Smash Bros series has been rising with each new title released.

 VGchartz has incorrect sales data on MGS. Every major source including publications and Konami themselves has MGS1 at 6+ million and MGS2 at 7+ million,.
