as long as it stays above 40k till DK comes out its okay.


Which it won't.

And DK ain't saving nothing. It will sell well to the existing userbase but not much beyond that. The real test is Mario Kart.


DK will have a bigger impact then people are giving it credit for.   DKCR sold 6.1 million on Wii and 1.2 million on the 3DS (almost identical to Uncharted PS3/Vita numbers).   On top of that Donkey Kong has been used much less then Mario over the last decade and I wouldnt be shocked if more people are anticipating the new DKC then they did SM3DW, expecially with how well received DKCR was by everyone.   On top of that it's the only next-gen exclusive coming out in February, and has the most brand recognition out of anything being released by far that month.   Not saying it will boost it past PS4, but making up that 50k gap between the Wii U and Xbox One is pretty realistic.
