You obviously don't know when he said this.



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

Now even if it doesn't outsell MW2 by January, I do say it's going to make more profit.

http://www.videogamer.com/news/modern_warfare_2_cost_40-_50_million.html

40-50 million to develop was already a lot, but $200 million just to market it? When movies do that, it usually covers things like DVD sales, merchandising, and other revenue streams.

So NSMBWii is definitely going to make more profit by the end of the year.

Well I think theirs a good chance NSMBW will be more profitable. Though didn't MW2 make 500-million in reveniew day one? Minus 200-mill thats still 300 mill in reveniew. Now of course the game cost a couple mill but all in all thats a large net income from the first day on sale. However Mario is probubly cheaper to develope and Nintendo doesn't need to do really any marketing to sell it, so everything is pure profit.

So there is a good chance that NSMBW is more profitable. Nintendo is known for always being the most profitable and I highly doubt that would end today.

Change "drunk" to "half asleep", and I've been guilty of that once or twice, so I understand.

By the end of December, NSMB Wii should be about 5-7 million WW, while MW2 on the 360 should be 6-8 Million WW

If you watch the video carefully, you'll realize that he said NSMBW would beat CoDMW2 in one of the platforms. Geoff is the one who insists in the XBox 360 and leaves Reggie no alternative but politely accept the bet. If Reggie is thinking about NSMBW sales in between the PS3 and 360 versions, then this is very possible. Because he was forced to accept the bet against the 360, he argued it would be a close call. Personally, I think NSMBW will be the overall best seller but it will take a few months to reach there. Limiting to the American sales up to January, it will sell more than the PS3 but less than the 360 versions.
