For the longest time i have heard on this forum people talking up the power of GTA and all that, and how it will push hardware sales, but the truth is, though it has the Wii has still outsold both consoles combined, and rather than saying "nintendo have done a fantastic job especially during the biggest game in this industry" the HD enthusiasts have turned this into a a MK vs GTA thing, the funny thing is though MK did not sell as much as gta its still sold a phenomenal amount. This really is pathetic, like MK sails have ever been on the Lvls of the HALO's the SSBB's or the GTA's. |
Mario Kart does have similar sales potential to Halo and Super Smash Bros. (not in the same league as Grand Theft Auto though) but it also has a very different growth curve ... Much like Mario Party 8 (which has sold over 5 Million copies) Mario Kart will sell at a steady rate and its userbase will just continue to grow; unlike Mario Party 8 it is unlikely that we will see another Mario Kart this generation so there is nothing that will stop people from buying Mario Kart.
