Forums - Sales Discussion - How Big Will NSMB Wii Be? Possibly 9 Million Before the End of the Year?

I remember I had the nerve to say 19 million after 18 months haha



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

8 at most. I am expecting less



god, i hope angrypoolman gets unbanned by the time nsmb wii sells 11 million.

many lols will be had.



come try out the computer game i've been working on for my high school senior project, titled sling ball. http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=76669&page=1

you can view a few screenshots from the game in my photo album here; http://www.vgchartz.com/photos/album.php?album=2312

9 million is too high I'd say, but 8 million is definitely within reach. I set up my own minimum numbers here for Mario to hit 4 million-selling weeks, my Japan was set very low so 8mil is looking good. I hope supply doesn't get in the way too much for the game's sales!

Still, it'll outsell Super Mario Galaxy by the end of January. So much for the people who thought SMG's sales had anything to do with a 2D Mario!

Also, it'll be the best selling game ever for the month of December, topping Wii Sports' 5.3 million last year.

I have two bets going, one that NSMBWii will sell 5 million within 6 months and one that it'll sell 11 million in 12 months. I'm a happy boy :P

Who took that bet?

Anywhere within that range would be fantastic numbers. I know Nintendo wanted 10m by the March. But they are generally conservative. End of the year I'll go with 8m.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

Wow, I think about 8 mil may be about right, I'm a bit unsure if NSMBW can maintain really high numbers in Japan, but I think Others and America can make up for it!!
Go Nintendo!! :P Keep the game in good supply XD

at least a half a dozen people. (the 11 million in a year part, anyway) i'd have to dig up the bet thread to give you names.

I can understand, without seeing any sales, how some people might question the game getting to 11 million, but there was no way a Mario game in the lead up to the holidays wasn't going to get to 5 million.  Wii Music, one of the most hated-on Nintendo games ever released made 2.5 million in 6 months.



i've found the bet thread. http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=91329

sadly, the op is banned >.
