There's a lot of hype behind this gen... physically I'm betting on 15-18 mil but I bet with digital it'll hit 20.

I think its gona be simply amazing. The 3DS sales will explode even more than they already have with this out.

What many people forget aswell is that the DS was rampant with piracy. The 3DS isnt.
I think it will be interesting to see the battle between pokemon and GTAV sales. My original prediction was that it was gonna be the second best selling pokemon game.

Looking at the picture in the OP post, i wish they would include the started of gen 1 in there after the main story. It would be amazing. I think i only like gen1, 5 and 6. The rest are quite dull.

Do you like Tepig more than Cyndaquil????????????

16-18 mil.... they are releasing this without the piracy support so it is easy to break the diamond numbers.... black and white wouldve destroyed 3rd gen but due to the high demand in piracy it didnt

People not coming back for the next for various reasons. No new people filling in for the absense people.

↓↓↓This here↓↓↓

Pokémon Red / Green / Blue 31.37mil
Pokémon Gold / Silver 23.10mil
Pokémon Diamond / Pearl 18.07mil
Pokémon Ruby / Sapphire 15.85mil
Pokémon Black / White 14.72mil
Pokémon X/Y ????????

4th Gen had better sales than the 3rd gen and 5th gen didn't last long+ BW2 came out very fast (also DS piracy caused less sales). X/Y should definitely at least pass 16mil lifetime imo! Hopefully more
