Super Mario Galaxy 2 sales will definitely surpass Super Mario Galaxy 1's sales by at least 10,000,000. That makes it SMG2 worldwide sales about 20,000,000 units, possibly more.

Wait- WHAT?

Outsell Galaxy 1 by 10 million? O_o That game hasn't even managed 10 million LTD, why on earth would the sequel more than double it? I hope this is a joke thread.

Thats because SMG 1 came out in 2007 when there was much fewer Wiis. SMG2 comes out during a 71 million Wii units period.

 

And SMG2 got improved in every way. Nintendo worked a lot harder on SMG2.

SMG2 is releasing in less than 2 weeks and it has actually less than 500k preorders, it will close its preorders to 600k in the best case. And that doesn't even assure a 1m first week just in the Americas. It'll sell 900-1m first week in the Americas, how in hell can it sell 1.5 times what NSMBW (a much more popoular genre) has sold WW in its first week? While I agree SMG2 willsell better than first one (breaking 10 millions) it'll never sell 3m WW in its first week and will never outsell SMG by 10 millions!

Thank you for being sane.

it'll be about 900k to 1M first week in NA. In EU, I expect about 350K and Japan about 250K.

How about we all bet for something about how well it will sell?

Sales =/= Quality. I realize you're super-duper hyped about the game, so am I. But saying that Super Mario Galaxy 2 will outsell it's predecessor by 10 million copies is just... delusional. It will sell less than the original, a game that atm, is having a hard time climbing up to 9 million. That's not an prediction. That's a fact.
(And no, I'm not being pessimistic nor am I trolling Galaxy 2. I'm being realistic.)
Sorry if I came off as grumpy, but I am grumpy.

I bet you that SMG2 won't sell 15 million in it's first six months for a month of avatar control and a week of sig control, will you take it?



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

I'm a huge fanboy, but even I can't imagine SMG2 doing more than 1.5million in Week1 USA. Why would it do more?

You do know calling people fanboys is a bannable offense on this forum, right?
