Makes a lot of cash in the mobile market.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Its a popular mobile game, the 3DS version however sold 1.5m... not exactly something to go crazy about and I think the Mario spin on it wont do anything for it in Japan as P&D is already crazy popular. Maybe they think they can rake in the western market with the Mario skin, works for everything else after all.

What was the actual percentage increase? I'm not too trusting of graphics that don't provide a reference point :p It's far to easy to make something small seem huge. For example:

Look at how much Sony's stock skyrocketed this Wednesday!

In reality it was a 6% jump. That's actually quite a bit, but my image makes it seem like it flew through the ceiling.

Holy shit. So then, is this where the audience of Japan's formerly huge portable gaming market spend their money now? On just this game?
