GTA IV may do better in the first week or two but MKWii will have higher liftime sales.

Mainstream gamers aren't as concered about getting a game the moment it is released.

True, but the amount thats going to be buying GTA4 will be ridiculous. And GTA4 IS a mainstream game. Previous games sold TONS after its initial release. MKWii is not going to sell more than GTA4. Dicounting Wii Play, I doubt there will be a Nintendo game that will sell close to it save Brawl.

I don't think GTA IV is a mainstream game, it's definatley hardcore. Playing Wii Sprts with family members who normally wouldn't touch a video game, that's mainsteam.

Besides, the previous GTA versions caused such a sensation in the last gen because they offered radically new experiances. The new game doesn't really do that (evolution rather than revolution.)
