Outsell it lifetime? Yeah, I had a feeling, if only because of the growing userbase.

But *spank it*, like it's preparing to do? No. I didn't see that coming.

And not to take this thread in a new (likely unpleasant) direction, but the sales of NSMBWii seem like another feather in Malstrom's cap. A pretty big, peacock-like feather.

I mean, personally? I *love* SMG and would put it in my top 3, all time. But Malstrom said sales of a new 2d Mario would make the 3d series seem like a spin off--that the gameplay of 2d Mario has a broad appeal that the 3d series just hasn't matched--and... it's starting to look like that might be the case.

Craziness.

I hope so

es but I didn't expect it to outsell MW2. Looks like now it can.

2D Mario vs 3D Mario was a no-brainer for me, 2D Mario sells better...

Durr.

I'll admit, when the game was initially revealed I didn't think too much of it (above Brawl, definitely under Mario Kart). Once the game got closer to launch and we got more info (confirmation that it wasn't a... erm, DS port), 20 million didn't sound like a problem. Where the game will end up remains to be seen, as it's mostly dependent on legs in America / Others, but it's selling around expectations so far.

I'll say this much though, the numbers it has put up in Japan is something I'd never have guessed.

I took option 4. And to be completely honest with you, I still can't believe it's about to do it in this amount of time.

There's a good chance the number will get updated soon, and while I believe completely in VGC numbers, I still wont be able to believe it!

Yes, the weekly sales of the game worldwide are around 850-900k after 5 weeks of its release.

Yes, I was pretty sure it would outsell it one day. I didn't think it would do that so fast though.

I picked 4. I'm a terrible predictor. I thought it won't sel more beccause it was 2-D and didn't bellon there

Am I the only one that thought this was going to be a joke thread?
