It sells like hotcakes as always, Mario usually means crack in video game form, though the Mario Party games leave something to be desired as it just didn't seem like a REAL effort after Mario Party 2 released 3 to 8 are all kinda blah.

Coincidently thats about the time that Mario Party games stopped being developed by Nintendo themselves and were handed over to Hudson for development.

 

Once Ninty stopped making them they started sucking, and pretty much have ever since.

My Games of 2011:

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Super Mario 3D Land

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

It's not at all surprising that the first icon of the modern video game is still the most popular. He's only had, what, 27 years to gain his popularity? Master Chief doesn't even have a quarter of that behind him yet, and Sony doesn't even have a consistent iconic mascot to speak of.

Quite frankly, I'd be thoroughly amazed if Mario were to slip into obscurity, especially in a generation where the cards keep getting dealt in Nintendo's favor...



Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.

Mario is amazing, great sales.




Nintendo still doomed?

Nintendo and gamers have a great little arrangement going. We buy their games with Mario in the title, they make sure that they're games worth getting.

It's familiarity... of quality.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
