Will smash outsell mario kart this time around? (lol no)... (by the end of the holidays smash will pass MK, but MK will have longer legs)

Holiday release homie, KArt would have smoked its sales if released now.



Mario Kart 8 won't stop selling, you know?



Don't see how anyone buying smash would not pick up Mario Kart at some point.

You do know about the concept of dropping sales after the first weeks do you?

The fact that Smash isn't even close to MK8 despite launching in the holidays is a dead giveawa that Smash will have trouble catching up to it at all. MK8 sold 100k this week and it will continue to sell well throughout the holidays.

How on earth will Smash close a 550k sales gap in 2 weeks when it didn't even manage to sell 200k more than MK8 in its second week and BF no less.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Smash will pass Smash in Feruary, but by June MK8 will back above Smash forever in my opinion.
Both game will sell a lot.



Smash Bros. will not catch Mario Kart anytime soon. If it does, it will be out-legged by MK8 in the end.
