I know since it's on 2 consoles it was really only a matter of time, but as of Nintendo's reports yesterday we have the following numbers:

Smash Bros Wii U - 4.61 Million

Smash Bros 3DS - 7.92 Million

 

This puts us at a total of 12.53 million and Nintendo's reports have Brawl at 12.93 million. 

Now we've had a month since the those numbers, though I know we haven't sold 400,000K since then. 

I'm thinking by the end of April perhaps we'll have a new record holder for Smash (100K per month average for Jan-
April). How soon do you guys think it will happen?



Around the Network

It can happen around July, but people are going to debate if whether we could count Smash 3DS and Smash U as the same game. So that would be the beginning of the flamewars.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Come join The 2018 Obscure Game Monthly Review Thread.

Its like comparing Bayonetta 1 and Bayonetta 2!



Pocky Lover Boy! 

It's not a fair battle, but sure. Sm4sh is the best selling smash.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Definitely not a fair war with 2 consoles, but I just wanted to observe :)

And most big sellers on the other systems (COD, GTA) are multi system sellers, it's about time Smash branched out to a second system :D

Well, if you sum up both installed bases the total is still lower than the Wii, so there is that.But yeah, its not a straight up fight



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Yeah, considering the install base difference between both consoles, I'm not sure that this would be a fair thing to compare.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Yeah, but the one on the Wii isn't nearly as good as this one.

I thought about that, but even with less install base Sm4sh has an advantage of having all the Smash fans that double dip, the home console fanbase and the growing handheld fanbase.
