Oh no doubt about it, MW 2 will sell like gangbusters.
But I'm thinking it may be like other big juggernaunts this gen which is heavily front loaded and falls off.

One big reason is I think they really screwed up naming the new mario brothers game. A lot of people think it's a port of the DS version.
Yeah, Nintendo is terrible with marketing this generation.
Most people either think the game is some weird hybrid party game with single player tacked on or a port of the DS game.

As for MW2, nothing can stop it.
Its hard to gauge but ALL 2D Mario games have outsold 3D Mario games.
If I'm not mistaken Super Mario 64 DS has been outsold by new Super Mario Bros DS. So I think 2D Marios are more popular, but I do feel like the 3D games are the main series now.

And yeah nothing can stop MW 2 because nothing has tried. Like every major release got moved into next year.
