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


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.

oh i get it, still think you're wrong but that makes more sense

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.

Wii U isn't just going to stop at 5 million, you know.

I know for sure that NSMBU and MK8 will be the first Wii U games to hit that 5M mark. I think NSMBU will get there first though due to the bundles but I feel as if MK8 will surpass NSMBU eventually as the top selling Wii U game. I'm sure MK8 will be heavily bundles in the future as well though.

There might end up being one 10 million seller on Wii U.

Why are u assuming that NSMBU will be bundled for the rest of its life and Mario Kart wont be heavily bundled at some point?

I'm going with NSMBU since it is a bundled game and closer to 5m than anything ells

MK8 will be the second one while SM3DL will be third

its bundled now, has Ninty ever stop bundling a game after they started? one that didnt start out as a bundle? I cant think of any in the recent years. Console wise.

Edit: even if it wasnt bundled do people think MK8 will pass it and reach 100mil before it? thats the cocaine talking, NSMWU is already past 3 mil and we dont even have a release for MK8 some of you are putting way too much faith in that game.

NSMBU obviously ...

Yes they have, Mario Kart Wii was bundled in May 2011, later NSMB Wii replaced that bundle and later Wii Sports+Sports Resort became thd standard bundle and MK Wii is now bunded with the Wii Mini.

fair enough, but you dont know that they will STOP bundling it, and even if they do. MK8 is not going to beat it too 5 mil. Even if they bundle it from the jump which i doubt they will do.
