kind of deal like Golf Story. Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 on Wii U are irrelevant; few people associate either game with Wii U.

What changed about Mario Kart 8 on Wii U being one of the least relevant and most coldly received Mario Kart games of all time, to being perhaps the best received Mario Kart game of all time? In essence, Wii U was kind of a soft-launch for the game, it found its body and soul on Switch and went from a 6.8 game to a 9.5 game.

What you say about Mario Kart 8 on Wii U is not true. It was widely acclaimed and regarded as one of the best ever Mario Kart. It was much better than Double Dash, DS, Wii and 8, Super circuit isn't even in the discussion.

It was the already the best Mario Kart and by far the best selling game of the Wii U with a more than 50% attach rate.

Wii U was an exceptionnal failure which reduced the sales of all games published on it, but Mario Kart 8 quality was never in doubt.
