... And there it is. Mario Kart Wii just caught up to Halo 3.

So if it outsells GTA IV, how long would that take?

Well, seeing GTA IV is now below 50K/week combined, and MKWii is steadily a bit above 150K, I believe we can assume a (roughly) 100K win each week for some time even after christmas.

 

The current gap is 2.3M now, with MKWii at 8.2M and GTA IV at 10.5M.

 

By the end of the year, I believe the situation will be MKWii 10M-10.5M and GTA IV at 11.5-12M, so a roughly 1.5M gap (that's a bit pro GTA IV)

So my prediction is: Mario Kart Wii will pass GTA IV combined sales in this fiscal year.
