Yeah, the few 8 million people who bought Mario Kart 8...

Its still one of the worst selling MK titles, MK7 has sold 14 million and is still outselling it to this day despite being 2.5 years older.

8 million is only good when comparing it to the install base of Wii U.

Not entirely true as come when Switch launches it should be the 5th or 4th best selling game as right now it's closing in on SMK (may have already outsold it) on the SNES and can likely go on to outsell MK64. That's far from the worst selling, MK7 is being sold to a userbase of 60m and growing.

Regardless the original point Spemig made is correct as what's relevant to Switch's success is not how many Wii U owners migrate but how many 3DS owners migrate because if every non Wii U owning 3DS owner bought a Switch the console would become Nintendo's third best selling console.
