I'm here, so you can name down...

So we are know comparing a 100k bump WoW with what Zelda and Mario done?

And this thread proves that they aren't nearly as big.

Yes there are new entrants all the time, but on a comparison of system seller the point of comparing the release of Switch with Zelda and Mario with yearly titles was the point.

And Zelda and Mario isn't even 1M system seller, they are much above that as several people would buy the console only for those games.

Also unfortunately there are people that buy a system to keep playing only a single game the whole year.

This is the 3rd time i have to say this. i never once compared COD/FIFA to Mario/Zelda, that was never the argument.

The whole discussion started because somebody asked what big games did PS4 have in 2014 and i made a list of over a dozen big games that released that year. Somebody then said they are multiplat as an argument and i replied COD/FIFA/etc are big system sellers regardless of being multiplat.

Thats when you started going on about COD/FIFA vs Mario/Zelda.

Because that is the origin of the comparison. The person put that Switch strong release was linked to have the alleged 2 best games ever selling a lot of system, and them you go there and list those games and call them big system seller just the same wording the guy used for Zelda and Mario.

So unless you have a tendency to use the same word to describe different things you were putting they on similar group. And something that push 100k sales isn't near 5M.
