I know, totally unexpected.

2008 top 5
 
Well, that's pretty damn depressing. Guess I'll go to sleep now.

What does this mean for that bastard Reggie?
He won. He claimed he'd beat out the 360 sales.

Is it still cool to use "kicking ass and taking names" jokes?

Still nothing, because he said let's see the situation in end of January 2010. These are 2009 numbers.

But now that you asked, I bet NSMBW has easily beaten MW2 on PS3, and in coming months beats its whole LTD both platforms combined.
 
I don't know why people keep bringing up Reggie's bet. I guarantee he neither remembers making it nor cares about the outcome.
 
Oh fuck. I just realized how hypocritical I am. I own all 5 of these.

Now I'm even more depressed. :<

Why?

All good stuff there..
Besides NSMBW, none of those games were fucking awesome in my opinion. In fact, some of those games aren't even games. It just kind of hurts a little when Wii Sports and Wii Fit make these insane sales while there are games out there that are so unappreciated by the masses.

I don't know. I think I'm just in a shitty mood. =|
 
2/5 here. Played enough CoD thanks to the past 2 games in the series. I'd say I've had my fill.

Wii Sports Resort and NSMBWii are fantastic, however.

Never underestimate the power of overzealous game sales nerds.

At least #1 is a real game.

I hate the media attention it got though.


please be a parody of the typical 17 year old gaming nerd.

Please
 
Of all my consoles, the Wii is my least favorite by far,

yet I own all 4 of those Wii titles and do not own Modern Warfare 2

/bows at Nintendo
 
Barely pay our Wii Fit (the board is still sitting there in front of the TV) but the wife and I tore through NSMBW on account of all the awesome.

0/5 and I only have a slight passing interest in eventually playing one of those games.
Which one? My money is on Mario, but nothing is a sure bet.

Also, I use my Wii Fit board as an electronic scale for large packages, works quite well with a bit of homebrew :D
 
0/5 and the only one I have played is NWSMB, a borrowed copy (so glad I didn't buy it).

Feel pretty good with it.
 
0/5, only one I would play is NSMB, which I did play and thought was rather mediocre, especially as a co-op title.

It is? I mean if a sports game is not a real game and especially fucking Mario Bros, I doubt murder simulator #315 is even considered a software.
 
Only one I have is NSMB Wii, no interest in the other games... enjoyed what little I played of WSR in the stores but I know I'd get bored rather quickly (plus I'm not much for multiplayer anymore).
 
0/5

since I don't own a Wii and not into FPS games :P

If I had a Wii, It would probably be 1/5 :D

NSMB Wii hasn't outsold MW2 360 in the US.
What about worldwide?
 
Baki said:
No hardware. I am dissapoint.



No.

About 5M off atleast.
Are you talking about worldwide 360 sales, or worldwide combined console sales?

Mario, definitely.
 
Well deserved, Wii has the biggest userbase and nintendo knows how to reach the users. Let's hope 3rd-parties will also in 2010.

Just the 360 version? I'd say its probably pretty close right now given the 3M lead it has from Japan.

What homebrew? Do want.

I don't know the specifics of the bet, but in the context of what I was discussing, I was comparing worldwide NSMBW sales against worldwide MW2 360 sales, which is what I thought Reggie's bet was.

Regardless, I could give a shit and a half. Neither game held my attention for more than a few days.
