Why are u subtracting Oct from Nov?

May+June=200k (32 days of MK8)

November-240k (9 days of Smash U)

The bump from Oct to Nov was only 170k because I'm taking 70k as baseline because other games like Bayonetta2 and Hyrule Warriors (I'm being kind with SSBU) while there was nothing in May except MK8 hype.

And in Nov there's black friday, which I'm not considering in the equation.

Therefore MK8 > SSBU

Ur still not taking into account that May+June was 32 days of MK while Nov was only 9 days of Smash.

It has black friday + holiday bump + amiibo

What more do ssbu needs to outsell MK8?

Black Firday and holiday bump are one in the same. Amiibo isn't really a console mover, it's an accessory that adds new features to Smash Bros. And Wii U November sold more than Wii U in May+June. Little over 1 week of Smash vs 5 weeks of Mario Kart+new bundle.
