Will the ending of the Mario Kart 8 bonus game deal affect sales?

But I don't think we'll see the effect. I expect that Nintendo has another promotion lined up to follow the MK8 one. Perhaps something along the lines of "Buy Wii Sports Club, get Mario Kart 8 or for free". Or maybe a bundle that has Wii Sports Club preinstalled and a download code for a game of your choice (with MK8 being the lead example of possible games).

Then again, maybe they'll run a campaign focused on certain third party titles, instead. I'm not sure.

Theyre not giving away MK8 for free. No chance.
