M & M Kart has a 1 week advantage with it's launch date but will that 1 week sales be enough to help it get one over on Mario Kart Wii's release on April 11th.  Perhaps M&M Kart will sell through it's initial shipment and find impatient Mario Karts fans anticipated "sweet" spot

 

Seriously though - Zoo Digital must be devastated, anyone reckon any mums will be getting screamed at by young kids when they come back from the shop saying "bloody hell mum - thats not the right game!!".

M&M will definatly win, because it's cheaper.

Uhm.... Everybody likes M&Ms but Mario Kart is the follow up to the highest-selling Gamecube game and it will outsell everything else in the UK and all other countries for at least the first few weeks.

Is MKW going to be 49.99?  Most other Wii games are.

I wonder... if they just switch the characters, will this game outsell Mario Kart?

What I'm trying to do is, How many people buy Mario Kart because of Mario is in it.

*note, I know people here know better, but for 95% of Wii owners out there who don't read website or game reviews*



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

The American Amazon.com counterpart actually has a lovely video detailing the game's finer points.

Sorry damkira - perhaps I should've added /*sarcasm to my original post.Perhpas I souldn't assume nobody would take this thread as if I was asking a serious question.
