Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, there was little doubt that Nintendo’s latest offering in the Super Mario Bros. franchise was going to deliver on several levels. Nintendo has announced that Super Mario Bros. Wonder sold more than 4.3 million copies in less than two weeks after launching, which according to Nintendo means that it is now the “biggest release” and “fastest-selling” Super Mario-related title. Nintendo does add a footnote here saying that these sales statistics do not apply to any Mario game sold prior to the Wii and DS as they did not collect sales data before then.

Nintendo also adds that Wonder will continue to increase those sales numbers exponentially because Mario titles “tend to sell consistently over a long period of time.” They also stated that Wonder is a “appealing choice” for the holidays and that the 2024 sales statistics will be good as well. The previous king of fastest-selling Super Mario title was Super Mario Odyssey which sold more than two million copies in less than three days, which more than likely means that Wonder broke that threshold in less than that time frame, which makes this even more impressive.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first side-scrolling Super Mario title in 11 years, with the last one being New Super Mario Bros. U for the Nintendo Wii U in 2012. Ever since the release of the Nintendo Switch in 2017, Nintendo has seen several entries with varying success in the past few years. This includes Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, Super Mario Maker 2, and now Super Mario Bros. Wonder. With the series still doing well, and with the apparent successor of the Switch still being rumored for an inevitable reveal, Nintendo’s overall numbers are more than likely going to continue increasing from here on out.
