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

This was well expected to happen. I am surprised it has taken Mario Kart Wii half a year to reach 8 million sales. I would of expected Mario Kart Wii to have passed 8 million within 3 months.

 

 I agree. It is a shame that Mario Kart Wii is selling a mere 100K each week. A bigger launch and at least 150-200K weekly should have been expected, or what?

I mean, the game has been out of the top 5 WW several times! Even if you exclude Wii Sports, it has been out around 5 of 25 weeks. It even fell out of the top 10 once! After a mere 25 weeks.

 

Failure in Americas. It's going to end behind Brawl for 2008! And combined GTA IV will beat it by well over a million!

Failure in Japan. Wii Fit is going to beat it, and so is Monster Hunter and Pokemon Platinum.

Failure in Others. May beat Wii Fit, or end a statistical tie. Grand Theft Auto IV could also beat it.

 

Nintendo must be dissapointed - they're soon to be on the edge of bankrupcy.
