It won't outsell FF 13 in Japan though

Are you ready to take that bet?

I'll bet control of my sig and avatar for a year.

 

That hardly seems a fair bet as it's already an open and shut case.   FFXIII already dropped 87% in it's second week to about 250,000 compared to NSMBW selling over 500,000 in it's third week.    FFXIII sales will continue to plummet and NSMBW will enjoy typical loooooooong Wii legs making it impossible for FFXIII to ever catch NSMBW in Japan and zero chance ww.

Shhhhh He doesn't know yet >_>

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

I know. But he still thinks FFXIII will beat NSMBWii in Japan at the end of the gen. Hence why I want to make the bet with him.

Well, if he still wants to bet after reading this then go ahead.   But it's kinda like taking candy from a baby.  If your going to bet you should have at least a chance of losing.

Must burn SE butts a bit to know that a relatively low-cost game like NSMBW will vastly outsell their masterpiece that they took 5 years and Lord knows how many millions to make.

Yes, I did.

'Tis a shame 3D Mario performs so pitifully in comparison to 2D Mario, though.

I have not liked what nintendo have done since the N64 days. But the one thing they have done right is New super mario bros Wii. I Like this game pure and i dont own a Wii. Mario galaxy would never get me to own a Wii but the only game that has come close enough for me to buy that console


I have better thins to call the Wii but i would get a ban for it. Any way on topic is NSMRwii. The only truly good game on the Wii.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

You can list me under "duh." Comparing the sales of 2D and 3D Mario was obvious to me, and I never fell for that "it only sold because it was on DS" and "it's another Animal Crossing" BS people were spouting in threads regarding sales predictions for NSMB Wii.

For years I have heard people I know asking why they stopped making 2D Mario games.

I knew it was going to sell like hotcakes.
