um.. maybe you should look at it in terms of the company, sure.. take2 has made a lot of copies of gta4, and that is a lot more than nintendo has made of mario kart wii.. but look at the bigger picture.. this is a table of publisher totals from the week of gta4 release onwards
| Week Ending | Take 2 | Nintendo |
| 2nd May | 6085353 | 4450578 |
| 9th May | 1882778 | 2783801 |
| 16th May | 1036560 | 2215785 |
| 23rd May | 753151 | 3080815 |
| 30th May | 557512 | 2004508 |
| Total | 10315354 | 14535487 |
sure this doesn't indicate how many were printed on these weeks from the respective companies.. but maybe this could illustrate for you that nintendo has to be concerned with more than one game, let alone peripheral and console hardwares
