You do realize how huge the differences between those IPs are? Mario Kart is about 15x more popular than both of those series in Japan. It's a lock for 2 million lifetime at least. SAO will be lucky to pass 250k.

Are you saying 2 Million Lifetime for just Japan here...? That's a pretty nice estimate.

That's a lowball estimate.

it's 17th now and I assume i was 21th before. two games left the chart and it passed another two.

It has 16 points. The games at 17th, 18th and 19th all have 16 points.

It's only higher than them by whatever metric COMG chooses to rank games by which have exactly the same number of points. Which apparently isn't alphabetical nor based on the number of days remaining.

That's all I was getting at.

sounds like a simple invisible (to us) decimal number for games with the same number of points.

and I was pointing that MK8 was bellow J stars and hyperdimension on the other chart, meaning that at the very least, it passed those two games.

Even with the Wii U holding it back Mario Kart 8 should be able to defeat both Double Dash and Super Circuit. Anything less would be 'Oh boy'-bad.

Globally it seems like MK8 (+ MK7 legs) will push the Mario Kart franchise over the 100m mark, which is a nice achievement.

MK8 alone will push the franchise over 100mil this year. Holidays will be a dream for this game and Wii U

Are you crazy??? SAO will probably hit 250k first week! The game looks so much better than the previous title + the anime is continuing. Have you not seen Yokai Watch legs O.o?

Dude, don't do this now. Youkai Watch legs are legs that no other game will probably ever achieve in a while. It's basically the new Inazuma/Layton.

SAO will be lucky to hit 250LTD. For something like SAO, the legs will be non-existing.
