Quite pleased with it. Its also boosted Wii U more than Mk8 did in Japan. Wii U is actually up YoY and quickly catching up to 2013 which was the best year in Japan.

Glad its doing well in Japan. Gives me hope that it won't just be another one-shot Nintendo game.

No its floating around 5k-10k per week. But this is comparing mario Karts 3rd week to splatoon's 3rd week.
