Not really impressive numbers imo, but considering MK is a leggy title as it gets, this may help the Wii U mantain and edge over X1.

who wants to bump it?
My girlfriend bought this game...
...for the Wii U she doesn't even have yet.
Mario Kart is that strong to people...if they can get more people playing this game and get more people to see it/know about it/understand that it's crazy anti-gravity HD Mario Kart, they could probably push Wii U just a little bit with it.
You would think they would seize than chance to talk about how they and pretty much the whole world was wrong about their sales predictions for MK8.
Why is this game selling better?
Is this the turnaround that Nintendo has been hoping for?
Does this signal more buy 1 get 1 deals in the future?
Lots of questions to ask and discuss.
For some reason they are having none of it.
I highly doubt that. I don't think SSB is nearly as big and mainstream a franchise as MK.
Well deserved! Gonna repost my GIF as much as possible in support.

So, according to polygon, the world ends in approximately.. *quickly does math on fingers* shit, it must have ended on Monday!
I'm afraid it's over now, guys.
2001 GameCube Super Smash Bros. Melee 7.09 million
2003 GameCube Mario Kart: Double Dash 6.95 million
I honestly do not see why Smash 4 couldn't push the Wii U as well. Granted I think the 3DS version will hurt the sales, but what can you do?

That would require being evenhanded and coolheaded in their analysis of different issues. Something I don't have much faith in when I see shit like this.
The best thing about this announcement is that MK8 pulled in these kind of sales even though it re-balanced items, tracks, and characters. MK Wii and Brawl punished competitive players with mandatory random elements, but MK8 made a lot of changes so that beginners can still have fun without punishing better players for racing well. Some have claimed that those random elements are needed to reach a wider audience, but this news suggests otherwise.

That was before Mario Kart exploded on Wii and DS.
I doubt Super Smash Bros on 3DS or Wii U will match up to Mario Kart 7/8.
Having one strong selling game doesn't mean the system is "saved". We have no idea how the sales affected HW which is still the biggest issue.
