Why is this happening? The game is 11 years old, why is no one moving on to the new system?

Should anyone with a Switch 2 be concerned that it's going to be a worse investment than the original console?

>older nintendo exclusive still sells which probably helps cover whatever production and marketing costs its sequel had

Don't see the problem.

MKW is hard capped by how many Switch 2 units Nintendo can push out. The Switch is still selling well despite the Switch 2 already releasing and then you have 2nd hand Switch units being sold to people who then buy MK8.

From the footage I saw MK8 seems much faster and funnier.

Unfortunately they do judging from the commercial success of the modern crappy Pokemon games like Scarlet/Violet

>Surely this is some clickbait where they're comparing MK8 month x sales to MKW month x sales
>No, MK8 is literally just outselling it in current day

>read article anyway
>check the sources
>the article is based on circana's data that gamesradar wrote an article on
>not only should you be able to reach this conclusion from circana's data alone, but gamesradar's article on the topic explicitly states that the reason mario kart 8 outsells mario kart world is because over 80% of switch 2 owners have already got mario kart world as part of the bundle, but these digital copies from the bundles aren't accounted for in circana's sales data of physical sales
Fucking retarded.
