Well he actually quoted wrong as he said 3 weeks when my predictions are over 4 weeks but yes he definitely didn't see it likely.  But this is Mario we are talking about haha.

But this game blasted anyone's expectations.  Hell the way it is selling is making the 11 million 1 year predictions look pessimistic haha.  Hell at first glance I was only thinking 5-6 million by the end of the year and well I'm going to fall way short. 

ioi might fall short too, is the interesting part.

Well that is very possible.  He said 8.6 million and my middle ground is 8.3 million.  Mine's easily going  to get beat and maybe ioi as well.  I'll probably know quite well after we see American and European data for last week.  But I guess more or less it is going to depend on how big sales are for the week that includes Christmas.  I think they are going to be bigger than normal this year just because of how many days it covers along with "boxing day" or the day after Christmas.
