The price point is an issue elsewhere - but the context here is special.

Let me put it this way....

30 million people on a 100 million user base on the Wii paid $25-$60 for NSMB

40 million-ish people bought SMB on NES in the same price range.

Super Mario World sold at least 20 million.

Successful Nintendo consoles have a potential reach of 40-100 million users. Expand that reach by 20x and drop the price of the SW by 50%-80%

Both of those games came packaged with many of the consoles for no extra cost. It's like using Wii Sports as an example. It's skewed up.

Oh so Mario games were a non-factor in a desision to buy a Nintendo console?



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
