Im backing MK, On the gamecube double dash sold a heap and by the time MK is released the wii will have passed the gc lifetime sales.

MK:DD was the best selling game on the gamecube.. but I think the new MK will be an even greater seller for three reasons.

1. I think the Wii will have a greater install base than the GC by February.

2. the new MarioKart will have multiplayer options, and the Wii has a reputation of a fun system to play with your friends. MK is an infinitely better series than Mario Party, and MP8 has been huge.

3. In 2008, there is a lack of announced "aaaa" first party titles for the Wii. I think MK and Brawl will be the default choices for people looking for

GT5 will sell well but this series has been in decline since the PS1 days. Not to mention that relatively few people will own a PS3 and those PS3 owners and, for the small install base, will have a lot of titles to choose from.

 GT 3 sold 14 million. How is that a decline?
