Not too surprising if you look at the past Mario Kart sales. Mario Kart 7 for the 3DS broke 14 million in sales. The Wii one broke 30 million. Mario Kart 8 outsold the next highest Wii U game by 3 million and more than 50 percent. Mario Kart is huge.

Dissapointing, was hoping enough people would hold out on buying untill they lowered the price to an acceptable level. Switch owners can probably expect more overpriced ports now.

Don't get me wrong i don't mind ports of great games, but this is unacceptable especially towards those fans that supported the Wii-U and already own this game.

It probably won't. The reason this game was ported was because Mario Kart is such a big game for Nintendo. It outsold every other Wii U game by a huge margin. Moreover, Nintendo looks to be focusing on sequels with games like Splatoon 2. I don't see a Mario Kart game selling well to change this fact. Mario Kart selling well is expected.
