wow, people are really overhyping NSMBW sales. 30 million my ass. If NSMB DS couldnt sell that much what chances does Wii version have with 2 times smaller userbase. I think NSMBW will sell 15m-17m worldwide, about 2m more than FF13

You're expecting 13 to 15 million for Final Fantasy XIII!? 

^^on PS3 and 360 combined, why not?

Wii is tracking on par with DS, and Mario Kart Wii massively outdid Mario Kart DS.

And MKWii being bundled with wheel controller has nothing to do with it

If Mario Kart DS couldn't sell 25 million what chance does Wii version have with 2 times smaller userbase?

Wait a sec...

Yeah. You may want to consider how Nintendo's evergreens tend to sell. 30 million may be a stretch, but it certainly isn't impossible. Take another look at Mario Kart Wii's sales.

On the other hand, 13 million for FF13 is impossible. That's more than FFX and FFXII combined - and that was on the PS2 userbase.

Let's be generous and say that it'll sell 2.5 million in Japan.

You really expect  it to sell 10.5 to 12.5million across 360 and PS3 in North America and Others alone?  No Final Fantasy game has even sold 10 million WORLDWIDE - let alone just selling 10mil excluding Japan.

It'll get 6 - 7mil (if that) in North America and Others - and I think I'm being generous again with that figure.

Excitebots is also bundled with the Wheel controller, so there goes that theory.

Excitebots brand is much lees powerfull than Mario brand and it had much less comercials on TV, so there goes that theory
