I thought Mario Kart was supposed to be the biggest Wii U release of the year. It got beat by PS4 and XOne Watch Dogs in UK. Plus people are very quick to bash Watch Dogs (I was one of them until I played more) and praise MK8. Congrats to both though


It is the biggest WiiU release of the year, so far. Its the best selling WiiU game in UK for week 1. And that 666% console sales jump is evidence that MK8 is gonna be huge.

Like the 685% console sales jump was evidence that WWHD would be huge?

Mario Kart 8 is more sustainable for those who pick up a WiiU.

It will keep them entertained for far longer, and the online play will get them far more interested in the console than just "i wanna replay that classic game"
