Animal Crossing: New Leaf has passed 3.8 million copies sold

I guess it could reach the billions soon

That's a little high. x.x To sell 1 Billion copies approx. 1 in 6 people would have to buy the game. That means 1/6th of the planet would be playing it. While that would be AWESOME that's probably not going to happen.

If 1/6 of the planet bought a 3ds and NL, Nintendo would become it's own country from the crazy revenue flow.

I agree with Bea, it is a pleasant thought, but I don't think it'll ever happen.

I wouldn't say billions, but I'm certain it'll beat Wild World's record long before 8 years.

New Leaf certainly is a license for Nintendo to print money! I wouldn't doubt that it doesn't become the best selling game of all time!!

There's 6,973,738,433 people accounted for in the world.

If even the first 73,738,433 buy this game, that's extremely high.

Like Super Mario Bros for the NES
