I think they'll be neck and neck in sales to be honest. I won't be shocked if either outsells the other and I bet the final sales tally is relatively close in the end anyways.

No, and honestly I expect it to happen in North America, but worldwide sales of Mario will be greater.

I think it will be a pretty heated fight between the two.

Over the long haul Mario would win over Halo 3 due to it's very name.

Last Halo game = 40% attach rate.

Last Mario Game = Significantly less than that.

In other words, I would not be surprised.

No, Halo is a more edgy franchise, and that is what sells nowadays to the Mario generation.

Last time I checked, Halo 2 is still annihilating Mario Sunshine in sales...

I would be suprised that Halo 3 DIDN'T sell better than Mario Galaxy. Halo 3 is a juggernaut that sadly wont be beaten... BY ANYTHING!

Hard to say. Probably depends on when mario galaxy releases. Ifnintendo manages to get it out by november, then maybe. We dont know for sure though, it might delay to 2008

Yes, shocked and dissappointed.

However, by the time Xmas rolls around there will probably be more Wiis than 360's out, and the fact that it's a Mario game and likely to be rated E, all signs point to it selling more.
