SM3DW beating NSMBU would be a big victory for 3D platforming which can never seem to sell like 2d ones.

Ka-pi96 said: So is Mario Kart 8 the best selling game on the system now? Good! IMO it's the best game on the system, so it deserves to sell the most

I agree, by far the best.

I believe Hyrule warriors and Tropical Freeze are also both 1 million sellers, so both have sold 1 million, not shipped only. WIch is good but Tropical freeze deserves better

They look like all 1.5m+ sellers on WiiU, not 1m+.

I think that VGC dont have numbers for digital sales, so Donkey Kong and Pikmin 3 are probably over 1m.

It would also be justice, as NSMBU is shovelware compared to 3DW.

So much more effort went into the latter.

Both; these numbers include both copies on shelves and digital sales, but that's probably not enough to account for the 730k difference in MK8's numbers, or the 1.02m difference in 3D World's numbers.

I wouldn't say "insanely", but they are likely undertracked.

Also include Hyrule Warriors and Lego City Undercover.

I think I didn't phrase that well. I know VGC doesn't track digital, but I was wondering if Nintendos numbers included it. That's why I was worried about Donkey Kong and Pikmin. If this was nintendos 1m+ - shipped+digital list and those two didn't show up that'd likely mean they're overtracked at VGC.

If it's 1.5m+ it's all fine though!

I didn't include Lego City and Hyrule Warriors because they're third party and nintendo probably wouldn't include them in their numbers, but i think Hyrule Warriors was confirmed to be 1m+ a couple of days ago. :)

Thanks for clarifying! Yeah, since it's including digital the diffrence wouldn't be that high. How much would you expect these two to have on shelves WW?

So glad for Super Mario 3D World, it's closing the gap between 2D and 3D Mario platformers.
