Isn't that kind of a problem when some form of Mario game take up your top 7 or 8 best selling slots? How much Mario is too much Mario?

That's insane though that Mario Kart 8 has sold more than half of the Wii U's entire userbase.

I'm more surprised that not everybody had bought Mario Kart 8.  People ought to be buying a Wii U for that game alone.

Out of the Top 10 only 4 games are Mario related. The rest are different games and even the Mario games are completely different - Kart is not 3D World etc.

Mario Kart 8 - 5.43 million pcs.

Nintendo Land - 4.88 million pcs.

New Super Mario Bros. U - 4.84 million pcs.

Super Mario 3D World - 4.30 million pcs.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - 3.83 million pcs.

New Super Luigi U - 2.26 million pcs.

Splatoon - 1.62 million pcs.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD - 1.57 million pcs.

Wii Party U - 1.57 million pcs.

Pokémon X/Pokémon Y - 13.99 million pcs.

Ign:  Zelda still coming to the U.

Travo, this article is from E3.

(This may seem like it's coming out of nowhere, but I've been playing Super Mario Galaxy for the last three days)...

Is it just me or was whoever made the mantaray racing in Galaxy deliberately cock-teasing for Wave Race?  The wave physics is virtually identical.  And it's made me realise how badly I miss Wave Race.  Damn you Nintendo ... make a full Wave Race game.

I haven't even tried the jet-ski game in Resort because I knew that would be cock-tease for sure.  But they tricked me with the manta-racing.

I've been playing Mechassault for the last few days. And man....I should have bought this back in 2002 because it is one of the most fun XBOX exclusive games I've played.
It also blows my mind that they haven't kept this franchise going. Nothing on 360, nothing announced for ONE.
This would be money much more well spent than getting Tomb Raider earlier than other machines.

Mechassault would be insane on the Bone.

At least the stupid robot game is not coming either.  

I think at this stage it's looking more and more likely that Zelda will not be a U game, which is making me very sad indeed.
