WiiU = ~ 12.8 milion (05 march 2016) Mario Kart 8 = 7.24 million (Official numbers at 31 Dec 2015) |
Mario Kart sold amazing despite the abysmal hardware sales, but the majority of those sales came from a time when Wii U was still somewhat relevant. The console is utterly dead now, and Zelda is still 8 months away.
I can't believe how weak Nintendo has been after the huge succes that the Wii was. The Wii U is about as expensive as the Xbox and PS4, but the demand is not there. The system itself is a dud and there's hardly any marketing push. It's like Nintendo gave up before they even tried.
