    Journalism is really hitting all-time lows these days, huh?

    They really will make an article on anything just to get clicks and ad revenue.

      Honestly this is a pretty big deal. Mario Kart 8 has been an absolute sales juggernaut. It’s been largely speculated that mario kart 9 has been delayed just because 8 keeps on making millions. It’s just so uncommon to see a game sell in such huge numbers for over 6 years like that, especially because the game itself is way older than that and it didn’t even get any expansions/dlc until very recently.

        It was on two consoles, and was one of the earlier Switch releases. Its not surprising that it sold so many copies at all.
