Nintendo’s November 5 results list Mario Kart World at 16.48m lifetime copies as of September 30, 2026, including 1.78m sold in April–September. That implies 14.70m at March 31, 2026, below both 18.99m and 37.38m. Could the two FY2026 sales thresholds resolve NO? Source: https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2026/261105_3e.pdf (p. 16). I hold NO on the separate FY2027 >37.38m answer.
