Can Mario Kart Wii become the nr 1 selling game in its first 12 months?

MK and GTAIV will both beat San Andreas' 12 month record... not sure about LTD sales... SA is STILL selling.

 

 GTA:SA is still, selling, but that far into the future, MKWii will also be selling - and probably more than SA is now.

 

Case is, GTA:SA sold at full price for around 40 weeks. http://vgchartz.com/swlaunch.php?reg1=All&game1=Grand+Theft+Auto%3A+San+Andreas+-+PS2&reg2=All&game2=&reg3=All&game3=&weeks=204&weekly=1 should prove this, as a boost comes in, and stays.

Mario Kart Wii is going to stay at full price for twice that at least. This means that is has a boost comming in, that will come much later than San Andreas'.

 

San Andreas' legs are highly overrated.

San Andreas is at week 202, and sells just below 10k each week.

Nintendogs is at 177, and sells 60K each week - At a higher price point.

Super Mario 64 (DS) has better legs than San Andreas had (slightly) - and that's as hardcore as GTA:SA is.
