So how do UK gamers fill the void left by a uber-delayed Super Smash Bros. Brawl (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/ssbb)? They decide to buy Mario's other multiple control scheme release this year,
Mario Kart Wii (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/mkwii), and boy did they ever. In fact, Mario Kart Wii (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/mkwii) has become the eighth fastest selling game in UK history, and beat out one week sales of the five previous Mario Wii titles released combined.

How awesome is Mario? Well, on top of all that, titles featuring him account for 21.2% of all Wii game sales since its UK launch. For the full sales chart, check out the link below!
