Mario Kart Wii has been out for around six months and has sold about 7 million copies, which is very good. But;

Grand Theft Auto IV sold 10 million copies in less than four months.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the King, sold more than 12 million copies in five months.

So, Mario Kart Wii doesn't hold a candle to Grand Theft Auto.

 

Noob or troll? Either way, if you're not even going to bother reading the previous posts then you're time here will be limited.

Suddenly, I am noob when I'm telling the truth? What, no it can't be. Just accept the fact.

 

This is called cherry picking. Do yourself a favor and lookup what that means.

If you look at one fact in isolation, cherry picking that fact, you can prove the earth is flat. Of course there are other facts that you ignored that have been already presented. For example, Mario Kart is still topping the charts while GTAIV has fallen significantly. Another fact, Mario Kart has been beating GTAIV by 6 digit numbers for months. Another fact, Mario Kart DS is still top 20 after 3 years of selling.

There are many games that start out quickly, then die off. There are other games that start slowly and increase sales over time. That's a fact.
