    Someone at Nintendo, maybe Miyamoto I can't remember who, said that he would bet that NSMBW would outsell Modern Warfare 2.

    How...

      And that's the way it should be.

        I'm slightly glad because now Activision have one less thing to be high and mighty about.

        And Nintendo one more. Damn.

          Amount of titles sold does not dictate quality. I'm not particularly interested in either game.

            I'm just fappy over the fact that MW2 fags have less to be all high and mighty about.

            It's someone saw what I was saying to WD last night and made my wishes come true.

                This news... gets you aroused then?
                Besides this is only going to convince Nintendo that they can just stick with the same old franchises and rake in money that way. I wouldn't see it as good news at all.

                  And what would it convince Activision? Something different.

                  At least I hate Nintendo less than Kotick.

                    I didn't say it would convince Activision differently.

                      I'm aware of that. It was a hypothetical.

                        I don't see how this comes as much of a surprise. I'm sure a lot of you know gobs more people who own a 360/PS3 AND a Wii. And probably some more people who own a Wii but neither of the good consoles. But how many people can you think of that have a PS3/360 and not a Wii?

                          Actually this would be true if we were to only count 360 sales of Modern Warfare 2. Courtesy of VGchartz...

                          360 MW2 sells 9 million. http://vgchartz.com/...8848&region=All
                          PS3 MW2 sells 6 million. http://vgchartz.com/...8847&region=All
                          NSMBW sells 10 million. http://www.vgchartz....me.php?id=35076

                          So...

                            Massive Fail.

                            While we're talking about how good MW2 is.
                            MW2 makes $1Billion

                              Nice. I found it hard to believe NSMBW was selling more.

                                At any rate, I wouldn't be surprised if Mario Bros. outsells MW2 in the long run.

                                    Evil? I'd hardly say games of good quality selling well is evil.

                                      I wouldn't call a game being released with hundreds of glitches a quality game... they're STILL finding and fixing some game-breaking glitches.

                                        A lot of games are released that have glitches, especially with the current generation.

                                          I think Activision are the perfect example of Evil, while Nintendo are you know what I mean.

                                          And games being released unfinished? Protip: Never buy a cryptic MMO.

                                            I wouldn't call a game being released with hundreds of glitches a quality game... they're STILL finding and fixing some game-breaking glitches.
