I'm not someone to say that threads shouldn't be made, for the most part, but I do worry that some people might not understand how very little the Amazon numbers actually mean.
These are rankings, which means that the games are being judged against other games in a snapshot of the moment, not their cumulative pre-order numbers. So, then, what is Mario Kart's primary competition? Watch Dogs also comes out in May but it's a game that has been available for pre-order for many months and already has around half a million already. What else, then? MLB 14 (PS4) is 7th, for reference, and won't sell many copies at all compared to a game like Mario Kart. That it's the second video-game on the list to Mario Kart should tell us all we need to know.
