Are you a good MK player with great taste or just a Zelda hater?

I refuse to play Link, he has no business being in Mario Kart! :P

Good, now send that message to Aonuma. We don't want Link in Mario Kart. We want in a real Zelda game, now. Stop with spin offs and remakes.

Tough call, Smash will start out stronger due to higher userbase at start, more marketing and holyday season, but can Sonics legs keep up with Mario's Monster Wheels?

That said, I know a couple of guys who will buy a Wii U just because of Smash (and Zelda), and since the casuals have moved on to iPhonyes and Androshit devices I'd say Smash

Now this I agree with. Aonuma pisses me off, I wish someone the series was entrusted to someone else.

I think MK8 will sell the bigger numbers, Mario Kart always has, but I think Smash will do incredibly well, it looks like the most comprehensive Smash game Nintendo has ever made and it's launching at a huge time of the year, so will have huge launch numbers IMO.

TBH I wouldn't be shocked if having both games on the system causes a decent surge in Wii U numbers and with all of the past games Wii U will start doing a lot better hardware numbers when Smash comes out.

MK8 will probably get a decent spike when that game comes out too IMO.

kart racing or 2d fighting. it is a close call but I think MK8 has better legs globally.

What does Link being in Mario Kart have to do with wanting a main Zelda title? What a ridiculous comment. That game will come when it comes, it's not like they're going to delay it 6 months because with Link being in MK8 we've got our fix of Zelda.
