This is amazing news~ Odyssey beating Galaxy is inevitable at this point. It's an evergreen title that's going to sell throughout Switch life. The only thing stopping it would be an Odyssey 2- which oh please god do make ;)

3D Mario I wouldn't say doesn't sell well- I would more so say that 3D sales pale in comparison to the older 2D titles. If we compare the recent 2D releases like NSMB2 and NSMBU, those didn't sell much better than 3D Land and 3D world respectively. Maybe because the novelty of 2D being more accessible is dying out, or the fact that NSMB games are getting derivative. Maybe the lack of multiplayer in 3D plays a role? Hmm.

Either way, this is great. MK8D is selling like hotcakes, which is surprising beyond belief. While it makes me happy, it's also slightly disheartening as the sales of MK8D could discourage Nintendo from making a new MK for Switch. After all, a new MK would slow down MK8D's momentum which is looking like it will stay for at least another year.

The only thing upsetting is 1-2 Switch selling better than ARMS. What a shame :(
