2 Opinion (Coffee Shop Talk) Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System is a much better game than Halo or Call of Duty for X-Box 360.

3 Opinion (Coffee Shop Talk +1) Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System is a much better game than Halo or Call of Duty for X-Box 360. This is true because more copies of Super Mario Bros. have been sold than Halo or Call of Duty.

4 Referenced Opinion (‘FACT’) Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System is a much better game than Halo or Call of Duty for X-Box 360. This is proven by the games popularity around the world. Super Mario Bros. has sold 40.23 million copies, where as Halo has only sold 8.1 million copies (Sinclair, 2008), and Call of Duty has only sold 7.481 million copies (Brightman, 2009).
