"One of our readers has been hunting down information on this, as have I. I actually ran out to an EB Games this morning to check it out. Reader Andre had heard from a GameStop employee that Super Mario Galaxy had hit 400,000 preorders via GameStop/EB in the US. He has gone through a few more employees, and keeps getting the same answer. I have now asked two employees about the preorder totals, without offering up the 400,000 number. Both employees gave me the same 400,000 response. It's not an official number by any means, but let's hope it is at least indicative of the excitement level for the game."

My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.

The Nintendo Entertainment Podcast is here, and it's the host's birthday! But don't worry, they'll talk news and Super Mario Galaxy too!
ya just like Halo 3 had 4 million pre orders, look the fact is that EBgames/Gamestop don't have access to preorder numbers. Not to mention 60% of games are sold at Walmart making a EB only pre order number of that size impossible
thats bs
never believed halo 3 hit 4 mill pre but know it will sell out in stores. thats the biggest game coming out this year.
whatever i will never buy this game or tha wii
