MK7 sold about a million week 1 in all regions on an install base that was I believe around one million at that point. Also, it was sold during the holidays, so MK8 should fall significantly short of that. So, I'll say about 700K.

I'd say lifetime sales would be about 10 million if it were not bundled, but bundles will probably bring it closer to 15 million.

But mk 8 has much more acumulated hype and the franchise tends to do better on home consoles.

I'm thinking 600,000 copies Week 1, 4.1 million copies total in 2014, and a lifetime of 11.4 million, making it the Wii U's best-selling retail game and one of the few 10+ million seller exclusives of the console generation.

That would be well short of MKWii, but would still reflect the series's major growth since Double Dash (which sold under 7 million lifetime).

A total of 11.4 million would also require the Wii U's final sales to only be 30 or 35 million, roughly N64 numbers, something that I still believe can happen.

Love and tolerate.
