Yeah but Mk7 released on a very successful handheld. And I disagree, Mario kart sold 20m+ on DS and is already at 10m on 3ds. Mario Kart does better in handhelds, MKWii was a exception not the rule. I don't think 1m fw is out of question, might be close, but won't do it "easily".

WHAT? MK does much better on home consoles. super circuit didn't sell more than DD with 4x the installed base. mk ds sold a lot less than mk wii even with 50 million extra users. the 3ds has a much bigger installed base than either N64 or gamecube, yet MK7 is stll slightly bellow MK64 and not far above DD.

Like already said, MKSS was the first game of the series in a handheld, it wasn't necessarily destined to do good numbers. And maybe you are right, doesn't care if MKwii had bundles or not, it sold due to the fad which Wii was. 

This gen could be the first where handheld>home console but I bet the next ones are gonna be the same.
