Forums - Sales - Mario & Sonic at Olympics (Wii) has done it!!!

Faxanadu on 22 April 2008

Just like the cool cats at Sega predicted. It has now officially passed 4 million units. At the same time, it has now passed Mr GAY in total sales in Europe.

All I can say is big ups M&S for this accomplishment, and big ups to Sega for their visionary approach.

Now what will happen once the Olympics commence?

Who would've thunk it? It certainly surpassed my predictions.

I thought that 4 million units prediction included DS sales, too.

The title is a blockbuster success.

Sales have been *insane*. Its actually turning out to be a REAL hardware seller - more so than Mario Galaxy or a host of other titles.

Its a crazy possibility, but with the Olympics coming up AND Wii/DS hardware shipments to increase - combined sales could exceed 10m lifetime.

Remember when we all called SEGA crazy for saying it'll sell 4M?

 The 4 million prediction was suppose to include the DS version. Sega didn't even think it would be this successful.

Looks like the cries of EPIC FAIL were the real failures. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

I kind of feel proud of myself, I actually kind of saw this coming.
Just because:
Mario, Sonic, Olympics.
What type of gamer isn't interested in at least one of those?
