We'll pretend you didn't say it because it's a weak response that is not only null and void to the whole argument it makes no sense in any context. A games appeal doesn't equate to it being a system seller, it's been explained to you already previously already in NSMBU being a decarative title that sells to the userbase the's no need to even repeat myself. As for the period 3DL and MK7 I misread the dates and got mixed up my mistake, 3DS began selling at 400k upon 3DL's release, when MK7 release a few weeks after it spiked to 700k on the game's release and 1m a week with MH's release before coming to the baseline of 300k, the price cut had raised the baseline to 150k after the spike in sales it caused prior to this. In comparison the week NSMB2 released (28th July) 3DS the 3DS had a spike of 100k units above the then baseline for one week before returning to the baseline of 300k. Funny enough both 3DL and MK7 have outsold NSMB2 by a margin that is bigger than what NSMBU is over 3DW which under the logic you're trying to push backs those games as system sellers.

Yeah people buy games at launch early adopters would have bought the Wii U with NL alone or even nothing because that group were always planning to purchase the platform right at the start anticipating their first party favourites, a game being their only choice doesn't make the game a system seller.

 

Your argument is that 3D Mario sells more systems because it's more appealing. "3DW being a 3D Mario is more appealing" Obviously a game's appeal does directly correlate to how much of a system seller it is since why buy a console for a game you don't like. I've already explained why the decrative title thing is false so you can repeat yourself all you want, the sales numbers wont change. Yes obviously 3DL + MK7 + Pricecut + Bundle + Holiday is gonna sell more systems than NSMB2 by itself, but that's not the point, being that NSMB2 is undeniably a system seller when you claim the series sells to userbase only.

NSMBU was never the only choice.

Zorg has it right, I never said that 2D Mario was bigger or that any of these games aren't system sellers (except on the Wii U in anything more than the literal sense), only that 2D Mario and 3D Mario are roughly just as big as one another based on straight up sales data.

I honestly believe the next soul calibur will be a nx exclusive, mainly due to Namco scoring the acquisition to develop one of nintendo's biggest ips, therefore I suspect, there was a deal granted between nintendo and Namco to fund and publish the next soul game. Maybe, maybe not, but it'd be great for us who intend to buy the console

The debates over move on kid, I said 3D Mario is more appealing as a title to commit to buying a new platform, also point to where I said I don't like NSMB? Don't pull false claims out your ass.

If it's over why are you still going? You're just using that as an excuse not to address my points.

So there are different variations of appeal? So even though people like 2D Mario just as much they wont buy a system for it but will for 3D Mario because... reasons? That sounds like pure nonsense, certainly can't be proven as true.

Point to where I said you said you don't like NSMB. Also you were complaining about my attitude earlier, how the tables have turned!

That would be odd. I mean, sure, the Smash deal must have been really good for NB, but making one of the biggest fighting series they have exclusive to a system that has yet to prove itself is unlikely. Plus, the competitive fighting audience is mostly on PS4 due to it hogging games like SFV and other fighters. I could see a remake of Soul Calibur 2 for the NX, though.

If we are talking about BN, why not making another of those Pacman World platformers? How good were those?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Because you replied so I replied back to let you know, move on kid even the person who shared the same view as you agreed the's nothing wrong with my view, my views on your attitude haven't changed either as you're still displaying it now.

You did more than just "let me know," hence me saying you're still going. Oh there is plenty wrong with your view as explained, but as long as you recognize it's just your opinion and not a fact like you were originally trying to push, then yeah it's fine. I don't argue over opinions no matter how blatantly wrong they are. I also don't care about your views, just don't complain about something and then do it yourself even worse unless you want to be a hypocrite.
