An observation whilst looking in video game shops near me is just how many Pre-owned copies of GTA4 there are around, in one store a row of 44 on Xbox360.

In comparison and admitedly to gloat just a bit....0 Mario Kart Wiis new or preowned anywhere.

 

Why would you return Mario Kart Wii?  It has awesome online!

 

 

Considering their demographics, I'm sure Local Multiplayer is where it's at for most MK owners =)

 

I don't see it -- every time I play MK Online it is a blast and you'll notice that most of the people you play with are playing with friends (you can tell if people are sharing a Wii).

MK online is much better than GTA 4 online.  If you haven't played both, obviously, it wouldn't make sense to draw a comparison.  But I bet MK online has a lot more players than GTA 4 online also.  Probably many times as many.

His point is that less that 2/3 Wii owners have their Wii connected to the Internet (a little after half I believe)

I'm fairly certain more than 3/4 of the total time played MKWii is offline.

Heck, I have to say that MKWii online is insanely much more fun than online (with 3 friends of course).

 

 

Exactly... I'm sure MK is fun online and since it's one of those evergreen titles online games must be plenty even though the game got some months on it already. It's just that most of MK multiplayer is happening offline.

And I don't know why it needs to be compared to GTA4 since they are both very different games, besides trying to spin some kind of bragging rights out of it.
