 as for AC, in 13 years it only had one amazing selling game, it need to have more then that be mentioned in the same light as 3d mario. 3d mario is 65 million units sold vs 32 million for animal crossing, how can you out them in the same light, and they both have 6 game released, i'm not even counting  mario odyssey.

Seriously, you have no dea what you are talking about.

There are not 6 AC games, there are 4.

Of those 4 titles, 2 were on home consoles while 2 were on handhelds.

The 2 on home consoles sold like 3-4 million.

The 2 on handhelds sold over 11 million.

 

When AC can be played on the go, it does similar to 3D Mario.

 

 

2001

 GameCube Animal Crossing 2.32 million[1]
1.68 million in US, 641,300 in Japan[2]
2005 NDS Animal Crossing: Wild World 11.75 million[1](March 2015)
2008 Wii Animal Crossing: City Folk 4.32 million [1](December 2013)
2013 3DS Animal Crossing: New Leaf 11.23 million[3] (September 2017)
2015 3DS Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer 3.04 million[4]
2015 Wii U Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival <<1 million

well we really haven't established this, like i said before mario had two 3d games selling over 20 million, on wii, so thats' not a fair comparison, if 2 smash games came out on wii, smash would have sold as much as mario galaxy, which are very close to each other in sales, then the wiiu, and 3ds comparison, the comparison is unfair, i guess, the only clear cut winner is GC is. as for AC, in 13 years it only had one amazing selling game, it need to have more then that be mentioned in the same light as 3d mario. 3d mario is 65 million units sold vs 32 million for animal crossing, how can you out them in the same light, and they both have 6 game released, i'm not even counting  mario odyssey.

Hang on, you are..... adding the sales of 2 games together...? That is literally NOT how it works! Seriously, to prove your point you are adding the sales of 2 entirely different entries together? That's extreme cherry picking! Like we already told you, on a like for like scenario smash will more often than not, outsell 3D Mario. As for Animal Crossing, as this is purely about sales then yes it is on a par with Mario. In probably all other metrics tho it isn't as important but this was specifically about  sales. Anyway, as someone has already said, this has gone way off-topic. If anyone wants to discuss it further i suppose i can make a post.

I'm not combining them but 3d mario and smash always get 1 title per generation, so you only 1 choice for each, and they keep on selling  that whole gen, mario glaxy 2 coming out only 2 years and some months after is gonna slow down sales for the first galaxy a bit.
