Miyamoto expects long-tail success for NSMB

Shigeru Miyamoto expects New Super Mario Bros. Wii to continue to selling well into 2010 and beyond.

According to a retailer’s blog translated by Andriasang, Miyamoto was on hand to present the multiplayer platformer to the trade and he told the lucky attendees: "It’s a Mario that will continue selling even after one year has passed."

The game is scheduled for release on November 20th in the UK. The game is one of three titles released this year that Nintendo expects to sell over ten million units, which also includes Wii Sports Resort and Wii Fit Plus.
