It still amazes me that Nintendo is still shipping for the Wii. Wii U numbers aren't that bad considering...

MK8 move another 20k and has sold 8.4M on an install base of ~13M

It still appears amazon top 100, so I would assume there is demand.

This is because Mario Kart Wii is awesome. At the time it was the best Mario Kart. I don't care what anyone else says.

Freaking amen. I never understood the hate it got, it's the best in the series after MK8 in my book.

I still see it in the Amazon top 100 everytime I check so not surprised it's still selling. I have to wonder why people are still buying after the Wii died and was discontinued though...
