We all know how much of a classic that plumber all garbed in red already is in videogaming history. But despite the many iterations under the
Super Mario franchise's belt,
Shigeru Miyamoto of
Nintendo still remains firm that the best is just yet to come. The
New Super Mario Bros. Wii will be
the Mario that will sell for "many years".
In a retailer briefing in
Japan earlier today, Miyamoto said, "It's a Mario that will continue selling even after one year has passed." He also predicted that it can, in fact, even "surpass 10 million copies worldwide in the whole fiscal year."
It's obvious that this game is top priority for Nintendo. And with the holidays coming up, we can only expect Wii stocks to be a problem yet again, especially with the deathly combo of the Wii price cut and the
New Super Mario Bros. Wii release.
