I categorised Mario party similarly to Splatoon in the OP. I figured they would both get there easily, so omitted them both.

Okay, didn't realise. Anyway aside from Luigi's mansion i don't see any of nintendo'ss current IP  getting to 10 million. The most likely candidate would be Donkey kong, DKC on Snes was a 9 million seller and Returns did 6.5m on Wii so there is potential but it would have to be a 10/10 in quality with great multiplayer and release in the next year or two before switch momentum declines. Other than that well If there was a Diddy Kong racing sequel with the production values of Mario kart and with Banjo as a guest racer like the original then it would have the mass market appeal to achieve 10 million.

Personally I would agree Luigi's mansion has the best shot and will likely be the next franchise to hit 10m sold. I put a few wild cards on the list too. Some I feel may at some stage cross 10m. Also, Donkey Kong will be a tough 1 to predict. I thought I was right, I think official numbers for the SNES version of country was over 9m but that was a long time ago. However, with a lot of Nintendo's franchises breaking franchise records on Switch, if announced it would definitely be in with a shot. Although all or most of your stipulations would have to align for it to be a reality. If a diddy kong racing sequel exists I agree it would have a shot but maybe a long shot.
