So my Question is Who Will Win In terms of Lifetime Sales? Right Now Halo 3 leads the way over SSBB by a little over 200k. These two games are the most important in Sales of their consoles (excluding "Wii" Titles, "Kinect", MKWii, NSMBWii). Below shows Data and Statistics of both Games!





Halo 3⇒11.72mil..⇒[2012~262k]as of 2013 so far (15k)
SSBB ⇒11.51mil...⇒[2012~619k]as of 2013 so far (54k)

Also to note Halo has Halo 4 out now while SSBB dont have its successor out for awhile!!!

So who's gonna Win?

Halo 3

I love Halo and I don't play Smash Bros or any other fighting games. Haven't played a fighter since the Dreamcast. But Halo is the greatest thing to happen to first person shooters since Doom.

SSBB.
Halo 3 won't be able to reach SSBB's sales this year since everyone will most likely focus on Halo 4. SSBB usually has quite a strong Holiday, too. (Which is amazing since it's been out for such a long time.)

Correct and its still not discounted(at $20) yet! Its actually in the top 60 as of week ending Jan26 for 2013 video game sales! Not bad for a 5year old game !

True.

I wonder if it'll become a Selects. If so, Halo has no chance.

Super Smash Brothers Brawl.


But remember that Halo 3 has been available digitally for quite some time now. If those sales were accounted for, I'm certain Halo 3 would win.

Brawl. It's been steadily closing the gap over the past two years.



IsawYoshi on 04 February 2013

SSBB for sure. It has that long term selling stuff that 94,3% of nintendo games has.



Otakumegane on 04 February 2013

Brawl. Because I myself need to buy 1....my disc broke

its funny how these titles kind of battled it out (sales) both came early in cycle life both best selling in their franchise, both hyped up to the max,etc! My prediction for both would be 12mil for halo 3(cuz of cheap price tag and can get 300k in 3 years and SSBB to have 12.50mil (maybe more, like you said its not a nintendo select and its because its still selling!) and SSB4 wont be out intill late 2014 or early 2015!
