MK8 alone will give it 500k sales right up front, early on, I'm calling that. Could even go 1 million in the first month, who knows? There's 6 million Wii U owners right now, and there's a lot of hype for this game. A LOT.

That said, it all depends on how Nintendo plays their cards from here on out. If they can get more games out at a steadier pace, if they actually ADVERTISE MK8 and SB and other games, if they really promote the shit out of it more, and do the obvious MK8 bundle, or even do a holiday deal where if you buy an MK8 bundle you can also get SB for discount or something.....who knows. The point is, IF they played their cards right, I could easily see it topping 8 mil. but the end of 2014. But that all depends on how they handle things post MK8.

Not sure if I heard right, but it sounds like you're saying the Wii U will sell 500k consoles the week Mario Kart 8 releases. That's crazy! As is 1 million Wii U's sold in one month! If you truely believe in what you're saying, then how about a friendly bet? You can choose whether the terms are 500k first week or 1 million first month after MK8 releases, and the stakes will be 1 month avatar control!
