Can someone explain why people thought that Playstation All-Stars would sell millions of copies?

People expect this game to be all about the legs not 1st month sales. Regardless 1m does not seem out of reach and with bundling I think 2m easy. People expect exclusives to sell really good all the time though, and their seems to be more retail for PS atm.

Why is Sony going to bundle All-Stars?  Companies bundles titles in order to go after a target niche for their console.  What target niche would Sony be going after to get console sales?

Local coop online play/ fighter / SSB crowd. Not only that this is a game that promotes a bunch of Sony IPs. It is also a new IP, so if they make the sequel then more people would have been exposed to the first one, so more sales for sequel. Anyways their is a multitude of reasons to bundle and not to bundle it, but I think it is more likely to be bundled then not.
