That means it outsold the US launch of Pokemon Yellow, Super Mario Bros. 3, Tetris...

Plus, adding in Japanese sales, it's got over three million in the last month.
 
Awesome. ^__^

But, what's up with this gamefaqs poll?

What controller do you most often play Super Smash Bros. Brawl with?

Wii Remote and Nunchuck 11.57% 2482
Sideways Wii Remote 2.04% 437
Classic Controller 5.26% 1129
GameCube Controller 36.89% 7912

It depends, I use more than one 1.89% 405
I haven't played SSBB yet 32.76% 7026

32.76% seems like a somewhat high percentage of people not to have played it yet.

Having two thirds of one of the largest forums around playing a game isn't too shabby. Plus, not everyone has a Wii.

Sales are really good though. Worldwide, that's well over two million copies sold already.
