I'm having trouble with videos, the preview image never shows up for me. I right click on the preview image for the video at Gamespot, goto properties & copy the URL. I've also tried right click & copy shortcut and pasting that in, but no dice.
Seems like this stock needs some hard figures. According to this Gamasutra article, Super Mario Sunshine sold 5.5 million copies in its lifetime. Note that this was on the Gamecube, and the Wii looks to have a higher install base than the Gamecube does. Note that Super Mario Sunshine received somewhat tepid reviews, such as an 8.0 from Gamespot.
Super Mario Galaxy will only sell less than Super Mario Sunshine did if it is an awful game, and it doesn't look like that's going to be the case.
@emc3333, Just to help out with the learning process, that'd be 353 SHARES of stock, not 353 stocks. You buy shares of a stock. You buy different stocks.
Do you thimk 353 stocks for this game is enough for when it sky rockets? I can't decide if I wanna sell another big seller and buy a lot of stock for this...
People love Mario. Galaxy looks like N64 mario but smoother polygons. I loved it when mario went adventurous (SMB3, SM World & Mario 64). Collecting Items and completing stages. This will just be another mario in a great series. It will sell well and people will love it.
@Orkeater, I don't think its too difficult to imagine Mario Galaxy selling 2x the number of copies currently forecasted. Every Mario games does much bigger than 4.53 million copies. It's not rare for them to sell 9 million copies.
