I'm going to play Devil's Advocate and say Smash will sell better than Mario Kart 8, figuring it's going to come out on the Holiday rush, plus hype (more than EVER) is a bigger factor than in past times. Also, Smash is being labelled the Savior of the Wii U (Overhyped, but w/e). Smash will also bring an old Audience from the Wii days back to Nintendo, while people who got Mario Kart 8 were mostly Wii U owners in the first place. All facts lead to it being a bigger success now, despite what history has showed us otherwise.
