Assuming that with the other four games I bought that the chances of me buying SMB3 were approximately 1 in 104. Therefore the chances of me buying that game on this day are 1 in 37960.
Ergo if we assume that the chances of this happening are so low, we can conclude that it is ironic, since Irony = An occurrence, result, or circumstance notable for such incongruity.
