Early reports have suggested a huge dominance by Mario Kart Wii in the UK Charts.
Industry website Next-Gen reports, if you tally up the first week sales for other Mario games - Mario & Sonic at the Olympics, Super Mario Galaxy, Mario Party 8, Mario Strikers and Super Paper Mario, it doesn't come close to the currently unknown Mario Kart figures.
1. Mario Kart Wii (Nintendo)
2. Gran Turismo 5: Prologue (Sony)
3. Mario & Sonic at The Olympic games (Sega)
4. Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 (Konami)
5. Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 (Ubisoft)
6. Condemned 2 (Sega)
7. Wii Play (Nintendo)
8. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Activision)
9. Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Activision)
10. Carnival - Funfair Games (2K Play)
Precise figures will be available at a later stage.
Thanks to C3's Phoenixus and Marzy for the tip.

Poor Mario Galaxy, it deserved better. 
But still, "whoo, go Mario Kart".
All those noobs who didn't buy Mario Galaxy can't unlock Rosalina, so their loss.
One day I will be a real life anime.

Yea how is Rosalina a heavy weight character. I think there is a way to unlock her without having Mario Galaxy save data. Dunno how though.
I can't quite see Mario kart selling that well...but i dunno.
Imagine what smash will be like then!

She's not fat! Nintendo have just taken advantage of her interstellar naivety! THOSE BASTARDS!
Either that or they wouldn't let the baby Luma come with her unless she applied for heavy. THOSE BASTARDS!
She probably didn't read the small print. THOSE BASTARDS!
Too late now, I guess. *sniff*
Still, she's bloody awesome >=D or rather, her bike is.
One day I will be a real life anime.
