Nintendo themselves had reported that it is over 5.1 millions with retail + digital. But nice to see it here as well.


What is NSMB U at with digital?


4,81M :)

Just a matter of time.

Not yet there.

But it sure deserves it.

It is there, it has been reported by Nintendo a long time ago. Personally I think Splatoon deserves it more, but Mario Kart 8 was a good game as well.

Good to know. It is a more entertaining and creative game than New Super Mario Bros. U. New Super Mario Bros. U has some great levels, but it is mostly more of the same.

3D World deserves to be number 1, but good for Mario Kart 8, haven't had so much fun with a Mario Kart game since Double Dash.

Spurge is using a VGChartz link in the OP, check it, it's still second there.

It's not there yet, just like I said, using the source in the OP.

He said it's been three weeks since the last VGC update, and by now it has surely achieved it.

Noice.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

It is undertracked on this site. It surpassed 5 million a long while ago



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Why would you use a bad source?

Mario Kart 8 is the best selling Wii U game, this is not up for discussion.

I'm not discussing that, you are doing it alone.

I'm discussing the thread and the OP, with it's choosen source.

I seriously don't see how that csn be hard to understand.

The title provides a topic, the OP provides a source and the creator consideration, and I answered to it.

Mario Kart 8 is not yet the number 1 in the source provided, exactly what my post pointed.

You might want to actually read the OP as he explains his reasoning with the fact that the vgchartz numbers are 3 weeks late. And that still doesn't change the fact why you would want to use a bad source. We have the numbers from Nintendo, that's the only source that should be taken into account.
