What can Nintendo release on Wii now that sell more than 10million units?

I think a few missed the 0 in the topic title. 10 million copies is a lot, far more than any Zelda or Metroid has ever sold. Only one 3D Mario ever broke 10 million, that being Mario 64. Myself, I don't expect Zelda Wii to outdo Twilight Princess' sales by much, if at all, and Other M will likely have trouble breaking a million units. Galaxy 2 I expect will fare better than either, but not by a lot. It will likely cap somewhere between 5 and 6 million units, unless I've missed my guess.

As for likely future 10mil+ sellers, I can think of only one in the pipeline: Wii Relax. If they made a sequel to NSMB Wii, assuming the quality was up to par, it could easily break 10 million too. Obviously Wii Fit Plus is a shoe-in for that status too, but it's already out.

EDIT: Erm, am I the only one who's actually looking at past sales trends, current information on products, and logical most-likely scenarios to extrapolate sales figures? Because I'm really getting a serious "I wanna see it happen so it can happen" vibe from a lot of these suggestions... Just sayin'...

The problem that you over look by looking at past sales is that Nintendo's current platform is performing better than any of their previous home consoles. Therefore a game like Zelda for the Wii could really bring in the gamers. Super Mario Galaxy indeed has a chance at selling 10 million. The install base will be higher and other Mario titles have performed very well thus giving this game more exposure. However Metriod the Other M is a question. It seems to be a mixture of third person and first person view and it really depends on how the game is made. Yet I do not think it will sell ten million copies.

 

As for other 10 million sellers that Nintendo could develop. We will have to wait. This company is so secretive about the products that they are developing. That guessing is all that we can do.
