Its a better game. Not every sequel is a better game than its predecessor. Shit look at the last 20 years of Final Fantasy releases.

Mario Kart 8 Delux is the peak of its series design. Its refined. Its tight. Its a damn near perfect iteration.

Mario Kart World is a vapid trend chaser adding bloat to a system that didn't need it and actively makes for a worse experience over all.

Why would you buy the bad game if you can buy the much better one?

While you are right, you should be pointing at mods who doesn't remove or at least do public bans to humiliate retards like OP. The mods are too busy deleting vidya threads.
If you want another example
Imagine a city. It has many kinds of laws to uphold peace and order. However the police doesn't stop 80% of thefts, and instead chases some few groups who drink in public or rides bikes without a helmet. Some of the police even is with the thieves who comes en masse to steal from people.
Do you just blame the thieves or the fact police is not only ignoring theft but encouraging it?

I hope the trend continues and that both Korb and Sanc Kart also continue to outsell it.

>>
>>719486730
It's citing Circana so it is specifically not counting bundles, so of the 2M+ Switch 2s sold in the US any MKW bundle doesn't count towards the total gross, so the only thing it can track is the $80 retail version. This is just brazen clickbait.
>>
I'm playing world and it's kind of unsatifying. I mean I didn't care much for 8 either but the antigrav levels were a little interesting. MKDS and double dash mechanics need to come back.
>>
>>719492497
Kirby sells really well. I was shocked to see anons surprised by that. Air riders is easily going to clear a million, but past that who knows
>>
>>719486626
Nintendo's last report showed that MKW had an attach rate of like 90%+ which means most people are getting the game digitally, and Circana doesn't count eshop sales.

But this doesn't fit the narrative so people here won't make this simple connection.

>>
>>719492606
Based take. MK World feels like it’s trying to be spectacle over substance. Yeah it’s pretty and the tracks are packed with detail, but the moment-to-moment racing just doesn’t flow. There’s no "grit" to the driving. MKDS had the best power slide mechanics hands down and Double Dash had straight up identity––characters actually mattered. Now it’s just "pick Mii with Meta Kart and meta wheels" and pray to the drift gods.

I got my Switch 2 and Mario Kart World yesterday.

And I have to say it's a beautiful game. But I don't really feel like I'm racing. I'm more casually cruising on a long lane enjoying the scenery. And the controls are way more sluggish than Mario Kart 8.

I'm kind of disappointed by it. Can't wait until the new Sonic racing game comes out. Then I'll play that instead.
>>
>>719494798
comparing MKDS to world and 8 is rough. I'm going to do a food analogy so pardon the americaness. MKDS is like a strong robust fresh made coffee in a french press. MK8 and MKW are like water in a nice mug with marios face with a coffee bean floating in it.
>People say both of these are great but we only offer the water with a bean floating in it now
but i want the coffee that strong zippy shit that hits and has fully fleshed out flavor and smell of the game that wakes me up and makes me go poop.
>Yeah well if you like that you're going to love the water with a coffee bean in it
what? no it's water with a bean floating in it.
>Yeah yeah nah but you get to keep the mug and it's all the same ingredients!
MKDS and DD with their action per minute and decision making during a race were satisfying and rewarding. MKW has the bones to be snappy and fun with the wall riding but the charging to perform the actions makes it too much of an investment for little to no payoff outside of a time trial where you grind a route. It's insane to me some of the decisions they decided to move forward with.

Its wild. Nintendo has destroyed Playstation and Xbox to the point that the haters are using Nintendo to bash... Nintendo.

The reality is though that Switch 2 is selling 75 percent faster than the Switch and people are buying it for Mario Kart World, which Circana doesn't count because they dont count Nintendo's digital sales..
>>
>>719490241
Mario Kart 8 isn't a better game than World. It's a more ""complete"" game because it's current Switch incarnation (Deluxe) is the culmination of nearly a decade of patching/dlc incorporated into it. Where as MK World is still in it's "vanilla" stage where it doesn't have years of dlc and patching to properly make it better than it's current form.

Seriously if possible play the vanilla version of Mario Kart 8 on Wii U (or play the Switch version with only the original tracks and characters in mind), then play World. Once you do that you will find the later is more preferable to the former even in it's current state. A lot of people here are not fully comprehending what MK8 was like back in 2014. Deluxe is a different beast especially in it's complete form with all dlc waves. MK8 had 32 tracks, meanwhile MK8 Deluxe has 96 tracks.

The age of DLC expansions is catching up to companies. EA recently said they are not making a new SIMS because who on earth would want to migrate to a new one when the current has so many expansions? Something can be said about DLC being TOO GOOD and causing future stagnation of the series. I'll bet that World will get DLCs and a Deluxe version on the Switch 3, and we won't get a proper sequel for another 14 years.

They're going to need to drop the price if they eventually plan to drop the bundle, desu. The only reason why MK8 still kept selling was because of kids, and which game is a parent going to buy when their kid asks for a Mario Kart? The one that is $60 or the one that is $80?

That statement is so disturbing when you recognize many of us will have to wait till potentially their 40's and 50's for a MK 10. Absolutely diabolical, I mean Shigeru Miyamoto would be 86 years old. How many of us are going to even make it?

Hopefully Nintendo has managed to learn something about streamlining dlc to their otherwise you might not be that far off. If Mario Kart World is going down a similar road to MK8 Nintendo needs more developers on board to get dlc out quicker.
