    Another strong week for the best console on the market: The Nintendo 3DS.

    In all seriousness, it’s great to see the Switch doing so well.

      Well I would have agreed with you two years ago in the 3ds’s prime. But now not only would I put the Switch above it, I would put the PS4 as well. So third best console would be more accurate.

      Would be hard for Mario Kart to obliterate anything if they don’t have enough Switches available to sell with it. It’ll definitely sell well though.

    I think it’s funny that when Mario Kart 8 released places like polygon and numerous other media sites claimed it would be the lowest selling Mario Kart of all time. Now in all honesty it has the potential to be the highest selling Mario Kart of all time..
