Mario Kart 8	5.11m copies sold	9.55m userbase	53,75%
Wii Sports	82.4m copies sold	101m userbase	80,63%

With the latest numbers, we know that Mario Kart 8 has sold around 5.11 on a 9.55m userbase. Compare that to the Wii Sports: It sold around 82,4m copies on a 101m userbase. Will MK8 surpass that kind of attach rate?

EDIT: So people seem to think MK8 won't get close to the 80% attach ratio of Wii Sports. Okay, fair enough, 80% is a monumental number to beat, even with an small userbase. Maybe something less big? Will Mario Kart 8 have a better attach rate than Super Mario Bros for the NES?
