I predict that anything with the words mario or smash in it will sell over a million. I win!

Wrong. Mario & Sonic at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games will never sell a million.

It's funny because that game actually did have legs. It only sold like 16k copies in its first two weeks and now it's almost at 600k (at least, according to VGC).

But anywho, you're right, most Mario games do the job.

It will have at least 20 games in the million seller category.



It'll be awhile before I figure out how to do one of these. :P

Few jrpgs have legs but it's still more than enough to surpass the first game ltd eventually.


Except xenoblade did have some legs compared to Xenoblade X.  It was the first of it's kind, this is a sequel.  Xenoblade X did 85k first week and by week 3 it is 4k and quickly off the top 50.  Media create had xenoblade on wii at 160k.  I hate to  break it to you guys but it's not happening.  Games like this don't suddenly start selling good again, they get returned to the store and quickly drop in price.

if we add digital sales, Xeno X should be anywhere between 115 and 125k right now in japan. It doesn't have to sell well again, if it keeps the usual jrpg legs it will surpass the first game with ease.

no it won't at all.  Even the xenoblade on wii didn't sell more than 20k after this many weeks and that had much better legs up until this point.  X has been out of the top 50 for quite a while, the top 50 is literally around 800 units at this point.

ok, "whatever" i guess. The facts just don't support the way you want things to turn out. This type of attitude just amazes me, it's like you're so blind by your fanboyism you can't see the obvious. This is coming from a guy that loves the series.
