[Updated] Can Mario kart 8 Surpass Super Mario Kart Sales-Wise?

[DaAndy]

It will be very very close - MK8 for sure can do 8.5m!
In 2015 it sold 2.2m. It just needs the same sales number in its remaining life like it had last year.
I think MK8 can do it.
Yes, MK8 can (including digital sales!) surpass SMK - given that 6.5m by end of 2015 is not overtracked.
