I am also going to mention, Mario Kart Wii sold 35m WITHOUT any other versions other than ONE. :P

But GTAV would have sold a lot more on a single platform if it wasn't spreaded across four. So it's kind of a double-edged sword.


No...a smaller userbase from one platform limits sales (look at Wii U games). Mario Kart Wii would have sold a lot more if it was spread across four. There is no double-edged sword with this. 

It absolutely is. That's not an opinion LOL

You don't actually know if Mario Kart Wii would have sold better on more platforms. And that's the point. We don't know what could have been in either cases (MK multiplatform or GTAV exclusive) so comparing both is futile. And the other version of MK could easily have cannibalized the Wii sales. Besides the Wii wouldn't have sold as many units as it did if Mario Kart Wii wasn't exclusive. It was a huge system seller.
