Brawl is still selling hundreds of thousands of copies?  Idk about that.



Considering it is the first Smash Bros to be on both console and Handheld, hell yea its gonna be the highest selling fighting game for the 8th generation... Even if it wasn't on both, it would still have more sales than any other fighting game around the world just cause of how fun the game is... It is easy to pick up but hard to master and fun for everyone... it is probably gonna be the game that will save the wiiU in 2014 (provided it comes out in 2014 that is)

Its interesting how similar the wiiU is to the gamecube... Many would argue that Melee was the reason to own a gamecube and it made the system and I think the next smash bros will do the same... Yea many people will buy the 3ds version but I think many will also get the wiiU version too

2008 7,918,031

2010 918,165

2011 680,608

2012 608,582

2013 349,289 and increasing! Holiday gives this game a nice boost, at least 450k for a 6 year game!



It is the best fighting game (read gameplay and popularity) in the history of video games. Add the fact that it only comes out once per generation. It should do well according to the facts, yet i has to show it.

what fighters are those ones? if you can name some



I think it will, I dont see anygame that could touch it, besides, the fighting genre is not what it used to be and SBB is the biggest game in a genre in which almost only new itinerations of old and proven franchises(Tekken, Soul Calibur, Street Fighter, etc...) have a chance of selling decent.

Im thinking it will sell something like 12 million combined



I think it should do Melee like numbers on Wii U, probably a little less.

Combined with 3DS sales I think it could reach like 10 millions.

Idk, that's my guess. So answering the OP question, yes, it should be the highest selling fighting game of the generation.
