With news coming from Ubi today that the average next gen game will cost $60,000,000 to make I would say 2 million is the new benchmark indicator for quality sales because it is an axiom in movies that you have to make back twice what you spent on making a Hollywood blockbuster in order to make a profit that you would have to set 2 million as the benchmark because if you only sell 1 million of a 60 million game you are only breaking even while selling two million and earning $120,000,000 should ensure a sizeable enough profit.
I feel Nintendo has already set a similar benchmark with their statement that Other M has to sell 1.5 to 2 million copies.
