You’re telling me the old Mario ports from old systems didn’t fly off the shelves?! No!!

I love the elephant. It’s a sleeper win. I was like ‘what is this elephant’ and after a while ‘shit yeah elephant’ it’s like a slow burn power up or something. Suits the trippy vibe of the game brilliantly

I’m surprised it’s not the fastest selling one of all time. They’ve really hit it out of the park and into the neighbouring state’s stadium.

And I am the only one who can’t buy it :/

So it’s time for a switch 2 or pro at the very least least.

That number is insane. It being more than 8 times the second place (spiderman2) is just crazy

It will be interesting how far it can go as it’s the first original new 2D Mario in a decade

I bought into the hype and got the game. Loving it. I don’t know exactly what it is but the game is so much fun. Really like not having a timer to make it through the world so you have time to explore.

Great game tbh
Now I want a Mario 64 remake (not remastered)

The argument that Sonic Superstars’ poor sales were due to the simultaneous release of Mario Wonder is certainly plausible. However, when one considers that the game sold fewer than 1,000 copies on PS4 and PS5, where Mario Wonder was not released, it is clear that the Sonic IP is in decline.
