Does the launch of a new console mean that the game doesn't sell anymore? Obviously not. Mario Kart Wii still sells.

I can also see a "Nintendo Select" for $24.99 of something like that.

Are you seriously comparing the Wii and the WiiU and exepect the same results? L.O.L.

Seriously, don't.

Did I anywhere expect same results? No. Reading is ability you usually learn at the age of 5-7. Please use that ability.

Not the same results in term of numbers, moron. You were talking about the long term sales of the game, stay on point. You can't expect the same sales pattern for Mario Kart 8, for obvious reasons. The WiiU is going to fade out a lot more quickly.

Could you please stop with these terms like "moron"? I will report you if not.

I've never denied that the Wii U is fading out more quickly. But Mario Kart Wii launched in 2008 and still sells in 2015. Why should a Wii U game stop selling 3 years after its release? Mario Kart 8 will continue selling well, that's the point. Discussion closed, you "moron".

People like you are the fucking worst. You insult people, without actually use any swear word. And then you get all high and mighty when we insult you back.

You know what, fuck you. 

As for your prediction, still wrong. It won't happened for a simple reason, Wii games are still sold in retail, what do you think will happen to WiiU games? That you're going to find them everywhere 2 years after the release of the NX? Spoiler alert: you won't

You can't compare sales pattern for 10 million consoles VS 100 millions, same goes for a game that sold 45 million VS 5millions. It's not just about adding numbers.

Report is out. People like you shouldn't be allowed to enter this forum.

And for one last time (maybe you'll understand it this time, I still have faith in you): I expect Mario Kart 8 to sell like 500k after the launch of NX, not like 5 million or something. That's certainly possible.

The drama of it all.

I don't know about 8 outselling 1... I'd be glad if it did, but it will be tough. Although MK 8 is probably standing at over 6 million shipped + digital. Super Mario Kart has Dem digital legs too :P
