@ khuutra. This interview is your proof? Sorry but this is no evidence, he said they wanted to expand the audience to about 1,5-2 Mio. he don´t say, this should be in the US alone, so where´s your evidence?  Where are the 3 million unit sold, they had expected? You don´t proof this, either. You make a wrong interpretation, because he don´t say clearly to reach your numbers in the US or worldwirde.   That is only your interpretation!  it is only one interview where he said, that they want to reach 1,5 to 2 Mio. Nothing more, nothing less. Sorry, but I concider something else than this as facts...

In the past, Reggie has always spoken specifically about US sales numbers (including his infamous NSMBWii vs. CoD:MW2 prediction). That's because he's the president of Nintendo of America. Historical precedence is evidence enough.

And no, you odn't have a valid alternative, by your own standards, unless you present a better source of "evidence"

Sorry, maybe it´s because I´m working at court and we have in europe another understanding about the word "evidence", but what somebody said sometimes has NO reference to an actual declaration. I have to proof nothing, because I have said a lot of times. Let´s see how the game will sell. YOU have to proof something, because you are convinced, that metroid is a failure, without knowing how it will sell the next months... And this interview, where you only interpret (!) something about something he said months ago, sorry, but I wish you good look to convince somebode ^^
