Holy crap! Can't remember what I predicted but, nowhere near that! Now I can't wait to see the hardware boost, it's going to be huge. 1.2 million +1... On my way home with my copy now...

 

edit: is it just me, or are there people in here actually trying to downplay this news? Lol if so... 

It's the usual suspects as usual, so no need to worry. They are doing a good job.

I don't think you understand what downpay means. 

Mario Kart has clearly done well, it's going to be a very strong seller throughout it's lifetime. BUT I'm not going to start proclaiming this as a massive success for Nintendo until I know what it did for hardware numbers.
