8:The New Magic Number

Mario Kart 8 has raised Wii U sales exponentially.

 With the new bundle that packages the console with

 the game, the Wii U is being pulled out of its own 

quicksand. Will it be enough? Mario Kart alone

 probably won't be, being that the console's quick-

sand is really, really deep. But with Hyrule Warriors,

 Super Smash Bros., Splatoon, Mario Maker, Star Fox,

 and many others coming to Wii U in 2014-2015, the 

Wii U has a chance to crush the other two next-gen

 consoles. And to think: some people doubt Nintendo. Shame.
