So do you guys think that Smash for Wii U will have more pre orders the week before it releases than Mario Kart 8? Here's the current standings.

As you can see, Mario Kart 8 had a strong fourth place with a boost of 47,191 pre-orders, coming to a total of 279,054 before the game launched. Now let's look at the most recent for Smash.
November 1st 2014:

3 | 33,172 | 199,318 |
Now granted this is 3 weeks before it launches but the numbers honestly aren't super far away. As of November 1st, they've had a 79,736 difference, but I am expecting the gap to shrink weekly. Another interesting thing that may make many disagree with me is that Mario Kart's pre orders grew more rapidly, but I'm thinking the week before Smash pre-orders will probably jump 50k-55k, and probably Smash pre orders will be over 300k. That's my personal prediction, as I forsee many more pre-ordering Smash. IAlso I think quite a few may skip the pre-order since they will either download it or are waiting for bundles, Christmas season, and so on.
