Overrated Mess of a game. Broken online, slow gameplay and some terrible solo play. Melee is so much better it's not even funny.

Well deserved, Super Smash Bros Brawl is such a fantastic game with awesome gameplay, fun factor and overall attention to detail. Not the 20,000,000 I predicted one day, but it's not bad :)

Reported for stealth trolling.

OT: So does anyone expect 13 million?

Even counting multiplats together, this is the best selling fighter of all time, right?

Oooh, good question! I'm fairly sure it is. Multiplatform fighters never were that big. From the data I gather, it's

1. Super Smash Bros. Brawl - 10 million
2. Super Smash Bros. Melee - 7.1 million
3. Tekken 3 - 6.9 million
4. Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - 6.3 million 
5. SmackDown vs Raw 2008 - 5.81 million
6. Super Smash. Bros - 5.55 million

Most relatively major fighters seem to be lurking around 3 million sold.  I might have missed some fighter, though.

I like how Sony has tricked the newer generations into believing in price cuts and the 'Platinum/BUDGET' range. Works well for gimmicks and fads but not for classics.

Nintendo will cut the price in about 20 years and you'll be buying it as a CLASSIC.

How much does Monopoly retail for these days?

Nintendo keeps games prices high on purpose (For profit I believe, but I'm not completely sure if it works on all their games, so I'm not completely sure), not because it is a CLASSIC.

Prices are kept high because of the excess demand for certain games (NSMBWii, MKWii, etc).  Nintendo has probably kept the wholesale price for those games the same, but retailers won't reduce their prices because they are continuing to sell.  Even if Nintendo sold those games to the retailers at half the current price, very little if any of that would be felt by consumers as the excess demand still exists for such games, therefore keeping prices at that level.  I utterly detest the free market,  but that's how it works.

Nintendo also lowers the production of certain games to a point to where the supply is low enough to keep the price high. It has always been that way. They keep the prices high. It's in a thread around here, I'll look for it.

Well, I actually have a theory. Nintendo does not lower the price of their games because it devalues both the game and the franchise. The only games that have gotten a lower price in the past several years are games that Nintendo does not plan to do anything more with. I believe that Nintendo has acknowledged Wii Music as a failure, hence, its drop to $20 MSRP before going out-of-print. But, anything that Nintendo plans on doing more with, they will sooner stop printing than drop the price on, to ensure they can sell more of the next game at a higher price. Thus, games like Radiant Dawn are relegated to being rather hard to find. Nintendo knows, release Radiant Dawn cheap, and when the next Fire Emblem game comes out, some people who may have paid $50 for it may just wait instead for the cheaper release. This impacts the bottom line; it forces them to find more franchises to bring in the money instead, since the old ones with all the price drops just can't hold their value.
