(Yeah, I know that many of the PS2's released were people buying replacements, and I know that Wii has alot of casuals, so my predictions could be way off, but according to my synopsis... MK wii will sell way over 15 mil. (My calculation skills said over 30 mil, so this is a guess!) GT 5 will sell about 7 mil. (Pure Calculating) I feel smart...Yet stupid. |
Even ignoring the redundant PS2 purchases, don't expect those numbers to hold. GT sales have been remarkably consistent from PS1 to PS2, so it's core user base will very likely stick with it (unless there's some other game out there waiting to take the title). That's why I can't see it selling less than 8 million.
Similarly, a good bulk of GCN sales went to Nintendo loyalists (like me). The expansion of Wii sales is moving beyond that base, and that likely means those "new" Wii owners (ones who didn't own a GCN) will purchase MK in lower ratios. It will undoubtedly do better than MKDD (about 3.5 million), but it would need to triple MKDD's sales in order to beat typical GT numbers. Not saying that's impossible, but it's hard to put money on that bet.
