Smash Brothers has never performed well in Europe - look at historical data. Brawl only did 95k week one vs 195k for Mario Kart Wii.

I see Brawl at ~240k week one in Europe though? Do you mean in the UK?

I do mean the UK, my statement was a general one that Smash games don't do well in Europe and my example was UK figures for Smash and Mario last gen.

So it seems the ratio for is 2:1 for Kart vs. Smash in the UK. With Smash doing about the same as MK in America and Japan I think it will sell less than MK8 globally

Wow, European are fucking stupid when it comes to fighting games.

You're right. It's wonder that Smash and SF sell so much more than far superior fighters.
