Probably New Super Mario Bros. U because it's bundled.

But Mario Kart 8 will overtake it at some point.

Wii U = GREAT
PS4 = Good
Xbox One = I have more fun playing rock-paper-scissors

NSMBU, Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, and Smash Bros will all reach 5 million lifetime. Maybe even Nintendo Land if it get bundles again.

NSMBU will be the first to 5 million, and if the bundle lasts long then it should also be the first to 10 million and possibly the only one.

NSMBU cos of it's head start. Kart will get there too, though, and perhaps faster than NSMBU will.

I'd say Wii U at the moment has four games (released or announced) with potential to reach 5 million or more. Those games are:

New Super Mario Bros. U
Mario Kart 8
Super Smash Bros.
Super Mario 3D World

I base this projection on world wide life time hardware sales of 30-35 million Wii U systems.


If Wii U sells 30-35m like ur prediction then I would also add Donkey Kong and Zelda.

Mario Kart 8, it will be bundled with most WiiUs for the rest of the consoles life starting holidays 2014 imo

Mario kart doesn't need bundles to achieve those numbers. although a bundle would make it happen faster.

the question was originally 10mil when I answered

that doesnt even make sense. NSMBU will be bundled for the rest of WIi U's life. MK8 probably wont, no way it will catch up and pass it.

I didn't say it would pass it, I said it could reach 5m in less time than it took NSMBU to.

A game selling almost as much as the console as a whole? Might be a bit difficult, but I'm gonna say NSMBU or SM3DW. Both have legs, but NSMBU has a headstart. If neither of those, then definitely SSB4 if it starts to get more attention.
