Short answer: no.

Long answer: the WiiU-s instal base will be on-par with total MK7 sales by the beginning of next year. In best case it will double that number LT, and I doubt that MK8 will have a 60-70% attach rate. Best case I could see it doing 7 million with heavy bundling, but thus far 5-6 million seems like a reasonable expectation for the title IMO.

There's no need for a long answer. You didn't have to work out those finger muscles to type all of that.


Why? Did I offend anyone by actually detailing why I believe that MK8 will not be able to outsell MK7? Did I write anywhere that what I'm saying is a fact?

Its a prediction and I actually think that I fully responded to the OPs question describing my POV.

I think this is the most anyone has ever taken one of my posts out of context. 

I agreed with you, I was also being slightly sarcastic with the last sentence.
