The point is still there. Nintendo seperates software sales by device. 

So once again by your logic we can't compare the software sales of any device to the software sales of any other device because Nintendo seperates them, so your "fixed" list is incorrect as well because we can't compare Wii U to SNES/N64/GC/Wii.

Actually, we CAN'T compare devices with different install bases, different price points and from different eras... but we foolishly do. It's stupid, illogical and pointless.

who caresss

by your logic we can't 'compare' software sales of Nintendo versus Sony simply because the corporate ladders don't openly release data with it displayed

stop being so uptight and silly.

Unless you become a mod, stop trying to force people to post the way you want them to post.

Actually we can, there is no rule or law that says we're not allowed to or it's wrong. For some odd reason you get offended by the thought of software on different devices being compared, that's a personal problem, don't drag us into your personal problems.

I don't know how seperating sales numbers online equates to having personal problems haha.

Just wants to point out that Wii U's installbase was not a problem for these sales.

Nor, demonstrably, did it move too many systems.

It just may eek past Super Mario Kart LTD by the end of the year. Will definitely get there if NX Home isn't out until Fall 2017.

It's a problem when it gets to a point where you can't stand the fact that other people like to compare the sales of games in the same franchise on different platforms. It's something that clearly affects you personally considering you have made a big deal about it multiple times now.

It's something that I feel clearly affects you personally even though I have no idea of who you are, what you think and have never met you nor do I have ESP or any other sort of super natural clairvoyance.


Fixed.

Here's some helpful advice. Spend less time worrying about what I post and more time worrying about your own life. I assure you, you will only see improvment.
