I am actually thinking it will. Looking at Zelda's attach rate (over 100% lol), the hype currently surrounding the Switch, and that the rumors point to a massive Switch restock around the 28th..
With CURRENT consoles it would need to hit a 50% attach rate, which seems high, but again given the current hype and the relatively small amount of available titles, it isn't unheard of. And I'm willing to bet that with consoles sold from the Apr 18 restock, it will be well above 50% attach rate.
It will have to sell more than 1.2M in it's opening weekend.
My bet is 10m+ after all said is done.
They need more console units in stores for this to be super successful for Target. Makes me think they know they are gonna get another batch of units next week.
Not weird at all- Deluxe is coming out for a system with a bright-looking future, whereas it was readily apparent that the Wii U didn't have one by the time 8 came out.Kinda weird but cool that a port is getting a lot more marketing and fanfare than the original.
Man that's huge, I actually have no idea how much Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will sell. I'm always astonished when people tell me the Wii U version sold 8 million copies.
That's extremely conservative. The Wii U version sold 8 million on a 13 million install base. I would expect the Switch version to sell 25 million at least.
Switch will likely be at over 25% of Wii U's install base before Summer, and over half of it by the end of the year.. My guess is MK8DX will have matched MK8's sales within less than 18 months.
HopefullyMario Kart 8 Deluxe should be in the charts for a very, very long time. It will be the GTA V of the Switch.

Double that.
You would think so considering Nintendo knows how huge of a seller MK is.But..will there be switch units?
It's kind of cool to see Nintendo finally understand that proper marketing matters. They got lucky with the Wii, the thing was so unique and had such casual appeal it sold itself.
With the Switch they've been doing so many things right. Showing the Switch and Zelda on Fallon, clear marketing message, and then this. MK8D is going to be awesome, but everyone needs to know about it. This promo at Target means that every mom out there who shops at Target that week will be well aware of it (and have any kids they are bringing with them into the store begging for it).
Go Nintendo!
Target's red color suits Nintendo nicely.

There is no doubt of it outselling the original.Is it just me, or is MK8D getting more fanfare than MK8?
Has NeoGAF discussed the possibility of Deluxe outselling the original yet?
That was fast.
Dare I say...30mil when all's said and done?
Omg that's so cool. Insanely good marketing!
I want that cement Mario head to go rouge, dislodge, and cause some damage

Wooooooow, more ads in your view!!! Sooooo great!!! Thank you Nintendo.
LOL, this is really unforgettable.
Measured skepticism or analysis is not being a naysayer. Dismissing criticism is just as much an admission of bias as the specter of bias you imagine others may have towards something you like.This game is going to do crazy numbers in terms of lifetime sales.
Switch is posed to sell very well despite what naysayers on CAF have said imho.
It's pretty much a given considering the switch will pass Wii U numbers no problem.
That seems like a reach. MK7 managed 15m, I'm not sure the days of MK doing 20+ million are coming back.
Here we go
Walking through Target doors always brings a little rush, but this time youre crossing a starting line! As you walk through, motion sensors fire up flashing lights and play Marios catchy theme song.
Kid me would have probably loved to ride in that shopping cart.
I still remember the Mercedes-Benz DLCMK8 had a ton of promotion back then too.

Proof it's workingThat.. is amazing. I think i'll go to Target soon.
Oh yeah, whatever the Wii one was calledYou mean MK Wii
