Oh kewl.That must mean the 3Ds games are very popular if they are that big of a hit.

But I didn't think Black and white would be a hugly popular game THAt huge in slales.

Pokemon is more popular then any other video game in the world. Only thing in sales beating it is Mario.

See, the 3DS isn't failing, it's just that it's lacking good games. Release a good game and sales go up! Go figure...

Actually, if you factor in how many games each franchise has, Pokémon crushes Mario. It was something like 200+ games with $240 mil, opposing ~50 games with $217 mil. Boiled to its simplest, that means Pokémon is almost 4 times as popular.

Aw, figures. Mario hasn't had many games recently so I wouldn't know but it's good to see Pokemon is now #1 on charts of most popular. Now, if only Zelda had more games like Pokemon.

It's lacking a good library of games. Just release games like Super Mario 3DS and Luigi's Mansion 2 then hopefully we can save the thing, now that the price was cut drastically.

Oh, don't forget Paper Mario 3DS
