I don't understand, I'm not being too strict about the definition. There's no particular quality that decides whether something is mainstream or not other than it's reach. You could call any game that sells 2-3 million somewhat mainstream, and something that sells 1-2 million would border on it (likely most of it's buyers would be core but not enthusiasts).

But if that's the case, and knowing that each Metroid Prime sold 1-2 mill (the first Prime even 2.8 mill), then why even ask the question in the OP: "will Metroid Other M be the Metroid to sell to mainstream?"
