Could DKCR become the top selling western developed game in Japan ever?

^I assumed jarrod was joking, Kirby has never broken 2 million in Japan, even on DS or the original Gameboy (both of which were huge in Japan.)

I didn't mean to imply Kirby will break 2m... just that it'll sell more than DKCR in Japan.  I think Kirby will break a million, or come close to it though.  Not sure if DKCR will...

I agree with this which is that Kirby would do better than DKCR.

OP: This reminds me of how everyone said SO4 PS3 would sell better than 360 in Japan because ToV PS3 did so. I don't think NSMBW success can be directly applied to DKCR. I love to be proved wrong but right now I don't see it happen. Over 1 mil would be an amazing feat.
