Can we get a quarterly chart for Mario sales to compare?

That's a reasonable request.  Here are both charts.

Looks like both games had good legs in 2018, but Zelda's legs kept going after that.  I've gotta say, even though I predicted Zelda would have better legs, both games are selling better than I expected.  It will be interesting to see how far both games go in the end.
