Well, that's a part of why I hope they realice Wii U is not Wii but a GameCube 2  and starts developing more games aside of Mario.

How is this a commercial failure, it has 4 more weeks and less than 700K to to sell to match 3D Land, it also doesn't need to as this game is released on a smaller install base
I'm referring to the time taken to sell 1 million in NA
It's holding well in Japan and sales have stabilized so it is not a commercial failure
I'm getting the game on mid January simply because it's the only time of the year that i can get games from America (outside of the summer break) on.

I agree that nothing tops 64  but

WOOOT? 

3D Land is great compared to NSMB. I wish that would fail.   I want massive Mario64 style games every XY years and in the meantime a smaller 3D Land/World that replaces  NSMB

Before 3D Land/world dies nsmb should and then we can still discuss the death of the 3D series.

I mean... is it selling horribly?


700K out of 4 million users seem that bad.

I mean hell, look at the other Mario games on Wii U.

It's sell just like Mario Brothers Wii U. Which the 2D ones have actually been more popular lately.


People really need to lower their expectations down from Wii. Down from Ps3, down from 360.....

all the way down to almost Vita level really.

Well... maybe not software wise since Nintendo is great at capturing it's audience, but quite honestly, people need to reign back the Wii U belief.

i joined vgchartz today(yea), just to remind its users( which will include me now) just how retarded they are. there are 2 was to purchase wii u games. 1. going to a store and buying the physical copy(the disc). 2. digital downloading them from the eshop. When people compare sales they only talk physical copies. 3d world is the top download on nintendos wii u eshop. They have them listed in order, take a look for yourselfs. when you add the physical disc sales together with the digital downloaded sales(which nintendo doesn't release) you're looking at a blockbuster sales. I have only 3 games that i bought physical copies for. COD:BO 2, COD:GHOST, AND WARRIOR OROCHI 3 HYPER(it was at gamestop for $15 couldn't let it pass me by). Here are the rest, and they are all digital downloads.

I have no need for physical games anymore. There's nothing inside the box to collect anymore. no posters,collectors items, or the bad ass art work that use to be packaged in the box or case with the physical game. unless its on sell at a crazy ridiculous price, i'll stick with digital. And if people did any research, they would probably know that more and more people are choosing digital(which is the correct format being that this is suppose to be a new generation of gaming) on wii u. I Get 5 bucks back everytime i download a $60 dollar game. All digital this gen baby.

I honestly think 3D world is better than Galaxy.

Its the most fun ive had in a game in a long time. All the people complaining you have never play it so please do us all a favor and play it. It truly is amazing.

3d world > Galaxy

3D world is just amazing anyone who disagrees has obviously never played it and you should it is one of the most fun games in years.

edit:double post but o well maybe now you'll read this :P

I love how people judge a game without even playing it.

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, on all points.

i bet its allready beyond the breakevenpoint. it dont look like a 100m$ game. nintendo is realy good on making good gaes on little money.
and we will see a map dlc for it, nintendo did it before with the 2d mario on wii u(and with mario on nes^^)
its a cheap way to make a game and a good dlc pleases the fans easy. who dont wanna have 50 more lvl for 3dworld?

This is my impression to. I also have the feeling that those downplaying 3D World in favour of Galaxy really haven't played 3D World. For me this is the best 3D Mario i have ever played, its such a magical experience for me i just cant help feel people talking crap about it never actually played it.
