The game will definitely sell 15 million minimum. Nintendo will advertise the hell out of it. Nintendo was advertising NSMB for DS years after it's launch. Don't know if they are still advertising it now though.

This.  The two games' launches are going to be a complete repeat of MKWii and GTAIV - the hardcore gamers will wet thems over the thought of MW2 "destroying the Wii," but at the end of the day, Mario will end up dominating MW2.

That's actually quite a good analogy.

much like MKWii and GTAIV, MW2 will DESTROY in reviewing scores, giving cusomters who ended up buying it a great experience.

 

while NSMB will sell more in the end.

 

I think the question you have to ask yourself is... do you want a game that is better? or do you perfer to buy a game because more people bought it.

You think CoD: MW2 will be better than a 2D Mario platformer on a home console? Seriously?

It'll be good but come on :P

I do want a game that is better.

Which is why I'd choose Mario over Call of Duty any day - especially with the news that the PC version will not only cost as much as the console version, and be castrated into a console game as well.

haha no I don't have faith in the reviewing system :P You win this round.. *shakes fist*

It will sell well I think. It probably has more of a chance to reach 15 million than some other games do.
