Long run...big maybe. Almost every 360 owner has Halo 3 and a good amount of Wii owners won't ever buy anything other than Wii Sports and the latest Disney tie-in.

1 million if it's lucky.

Unlike Halo 3, high profile Nintendo games take a little while to pick up in sales. They sure as hell didn't blow Japan away. I mean, yeah, this is Brawl, the follow up to the Gamecube's best-selling game, and the system it's on has a huge userbase which already destroys the Gamecube's in size and potential. But, I can't trust Japan especially after how much time Mario Galaxy took to pick up the pace there, especially in comparison to the U.S.

However, those **** are buying up Mario and Sonic at the Olympics like nobody's business, so who knows?

In my opinion, if Halo 3 solid a few mil in its first couple of days, then I don't see why Brawl shouldn't do the same. But, I'm not setting my hope too high for it. I want the game to do well because of it's high production value and high profile among Nintendo games and games in general, but I'm not going to say that it's going to sell at a number even half of the Wii's userbase.
