If Wii-U went on to be a SNES-level success, it'd have to sell better than the Mario Kart on SNES + another 5 million to reach the "average" for the series, just because the Wii version was so much higher than all of the others. Which in turns is so much higher because of bundling. |
Thank you 
im considering doing ones for Playstation and Xbox as well, ill wait and see if this thread turns out good first.
It will be interesting to see if the Wii version of Mario Kart has permanently expanded the series fanbase or if it will retun to sub 10m sales. If Wii U does 40-50m then I think Mario Kart will come close to its average. Most of the other series didnt really improve drastically due to Wii install base.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
