Can't wait to see the numbers it pulls this Holiday, along with the Switch. Feel like we could be in for something truly epic.



Holy shit!Thats insane.

Man, the Switch is beating every single expectation.Not only in the hardware side, but most franchises that released on it so far are on the trajectory to surprass the best selling game on each franchise.Zelda, Splatoon and now Mario!(XC, dont let me down!)

Does somone have the FW sales of the best selling Super Mario game on Europe?



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

Are there estimates for EU numbers?

VGC has NSMBWii at 307k FW in EU, so Odyssey is probably > 300k



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.

First month US sales of all 3D Mario games:
[SEP 1996] Super Mario 64 (1 week) - 300,000
[AUG 2002] Super Mario Sunshine (1 week)- 350,000
[NOV 2007] Super Mario Galaxy (3 weeks) - 1,120,000
[MAY 2010] Super Mario Galaxy 2 (1 week) - 564,000
[NOV 2011] Super Mario 3D Land (4 weeks) - 625,000
[NOV 2013] Super Mario 3D World (2 weeks) - 215,000

So, Odyssey did in one week, what took Galaxy three weeks to do.

Yep, this is well on its way to becoming the best selling 3D Mario game of all time.



Okay ... if this is true then there's almost no way it sold 2 million in 3 days. Right? 

Edit: Nevermind, I guess it also depends on sales from other regions besides EU/JP/US
