    Glad to see that Mario Wonder is still selling well.

    But wow, good job Sony. Hopefully it can keep selling like that for the rest of Q3.
    Hopefully Nintendo can find that Q3 boost soon with the Black Friday discounts, bundles, and two new Mario games.
    Microsoft needs some help. Where are the newly acquired studios? I hope they start to pump out games soon.
