Hm, those predictions on the 1st page seem really high, considering the games are releasing in the fall, right?
Are people really believing they will sell upwards of 10 million by year's end, in a few short months? O_O

Lifetime, sure, but in 2013? Don't think so.

Ok take a look at all 3 regions first 10 weeks... http://www.vgchartz.com/game/4022/pokemon-diamond-pearl-version/USA/ get it now lol

This? If so, then no, I still don't see how people come up with predictions of 10-14 million by year's end. Do you? According to that link Diamond/Pearl sold a bit over 3.4 million WW in 10 weeks. Are we to believe X/Y will triple or quadruple that...?
