5 million copies is terrible sales for a NSMB game.

I'm not saying Odyssey won't sell well, but this won't do the company's image any favours by exemplifying one of their worst tendencies, over-milking the Mario IP.

Expecting NSMBU to sell as well as it's Wii/DS counterparts on a 14m installbase is pure insanity.

Everyone already knows Nintendo spams Mario games. Always have and always will, nothing new there.

I didn't say I expected it to sell as well as the Wii/DS versions, but I refuse to believe it wasn't hurt by the "I just bought a NSMB game, don't need/want another one" effect.

And that doesn't mean Nintendo has to feed the stigma. This could've been a straight-up Rabbids game, it didn't need to be a Mario crossover.
