Wow. Mario is the god of cash.




Mario is the biggest icon of the gaming industry. And its not just his name selling games, its people buying them for being top quality.

GO MARIO!!

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Fullfilled Prophecies

60 million mario games sold this gen so far, wow



69.15M through the latest numbers; 42.84M of that on DS, and the other 26.31 on Wii.

Mario games sold over 600K copies last week.

There should be no slowdown through the 75M mark, with Mario Baseball coming out, MK Wii still selling very fast, and the Olympics push coming up for M&S.
