      1. Actually its pretty sad, i mean great for nintendo, it shows they can compete with multi plat when using mario, but damn sony and microsoft exclusives arent even there.

    1. Mk7 was released in December and SM right before.

      It would be bad if they weren’t on the list. Hell mk7 was one of like 3 games released in December.

      1. I guess you didn’t see, E-X-C-L-U-S-I-V-E-S. And how is that sad, what about the great and amazing (and not-even-in top 30) Vita games? (You can’t say Vita games came out too late in the month since that’s what happened to SS and yet that game still managed to land a spot in November.)

        1. Only problem: The Vita hasn’t been released in America yet! These are the best selling games in America, and the Vita isn’t out there ’til February.

      2. Super Mario 3d land was the middle of November and Mario kart 7 the begining of December…..that’s still pretty good glad to see nintendos games and skyrim on that list it’s nice to see an rpg selling so well only problem I have is Zelda isn’t on there it deserves more sales…I hope kid Icarus and resident evil keep the 3ds momentum up in q1 of 2012.

        1. It would be on there as no. 10 if the list had multi-platform games separately (i.e. Just Dance 3 Wii and Just Dance 3 XBox being treated as different games etc)

      1. (Pretending to troll)

        MK7 and SM3DL suc ase. They only manged 2 do dat becuz dey were made eerly in the mont. I would also know becaus i haves the games but not the 3ds itselp becaus i just want 2 c how bad they r. Sony for the ween we kiss your ass make you hurt. I mean you kiss our ase and make you hurtzz.

        Reply: Why do you have MK7 and SM3DL without a 3DS you fool? You’re probably one to buy Just Dance for Kinect and get High Scores in the girl song because you play it all day.
        Reply back: …

    1. You mom is still holding up amazingly! lol But seriously, the fact that they’re exclusives and in the top ten shows great things. (Somebody’s gonna say “Your mom shows great things” so I’ll say it to ruin it for the potentials)

  1. Since trolls took over the last post, I have to say that the Tokyo WiiU demo was incredible. I can only begin to Imagine the possibilities…

    Resident evil… You hear or sense a zombie behind you, you turn around and the WiiU pad becomes your eyes and gun…

    Nice to see Mario Kart selling strong.
    GET ON YOUR KARTS PEOPLE!
    See you on Maple Treeway. ;)

  2. This is great and all, but I’m getting kinda tired of seeing all these ‘Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land top selling games here and in there and etc etc” posts all the time. I get it, they’re selling good…

  3. DEFINITION OF: Troll post: any truthful statement that pisses me the fuck off and requires me to activate my ultimate fanboy, key-mashing, warrior techniques, and I go on about how I didn’t bother reading it, or how the supposed troll is “mad”, when it is me who is replying to his post, thus making me an utter, self-contridictory faliure. *eats candy bar in shame*

  4. I Am The Yeti. You Are Scum

    Hesitant on buying SM3DL. I’m too damn nolstalgic when it comes to portable Mario titles. 6 Golden Coins FTW.

    1. Its ok, but it has a slow start, and the special levels are just the same levels but harder, it doesnt mean the levels suck, but it wouldve been better if the le els were different (its also on the short side)

      so i recomend buying it if your a true mario fan, if not just wait.
