Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii Fit just outsold Mario Kart Wii

Lolcislaw on 12 October 2008

Wii fit is a great product that appeals to the masses i am not suprised. I'm still trying to find it ,but cant anywhere i look.

This gives ninty loads of cash and they can release titles like Disaster, Wario or Fatal Frame IV without fear of not returning big profit.

Y'know, Mario Kart Wii could go right back above Wii Fit in a week right? It's only 500-some-odd units.

 

You have to go back months to find a week when Mario Kart outsells Wii Fit.

Just saying.

Exactly.

It's been ownage lately.

This week: Wii Fit 100K + (over MKWii)

2: Wii Fit + 120K

3:  Wii Fit +  70K

4:  Wii Fit + 60K

5.  Wii Fit + 50K

6.  Wii Fit + 30K

7. Wii Fit + 20K

8.  Wii Fit + 30K

9.  Wii Fit + 50K

10.  Wii Fit + 80K

11.  Wii Fit + 60K

12. Wii Fit + 11K

13.  Wii Fit + 110K (Whoa, MKWii was at 111.111 units :D)

14.  Wii Fit + 135K

15. Wii Fit + 60K

16. Mario Kart Wii + 40K

 

So you have to go back almost 4 months, before MKWii wins. Back untill mid June.

 

And Btw, Nuttyboy made a thread about this, but Montana locked it. Anyway, he had a fairly nice OP, so I'll post it here.

 

"Indeed. With an astoundishing lead of over 500 units, Wii Fit is now the best selling game this gen, beating Mario Kart Wii.

According to VGChartz and other data, Mario Kart Wii held the record for the shortest any title has ever done, after the initial 10 weeks of the generation.

This does of course not count the title Wii Play, which is a good 6 and a half million ahead of any other standalone title.

What should be noted, is that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the currently best selling single-platform console game, did not once beat 100K of sales after it's first 17 weeks. And remember, this title was one of the best legged ones in the 6th generation of videogames.

Wii Fit, is now on a 25 weeks row of selling over 100.000 units, and fellas, it's going to be a lot more.

The title has also achieved selling more in the weeks 20-100, than any 6th gen game ever did. And remember, it's only been out for 25 of those 80 weeks.

 

So it's looking bright for the title, and by the end of the year, the question is no longer if it will have sold 10 million titles, but 12.

 

And as if this wasn't enough, Wii Fit has achieved even more. It is the fastest revenuing game ever, or at least in the last 3 generations (5th, 6th and 7th generation of Videogames). Since the European launch, the game has revenued somewhere around 800 million dollars. That's somewhere around

35 million dollars a week.

5 million dollars a day.

208 thousand dollars an hour.

3500 dollars a minute

60 dollars a second."

 

 Maybe MKWii will get lucky, and catch Wii Fit during a shortage! Ah, who cares..... Nintendo makes millions either way.
