are you serious? Why cant you accept something? No matter how many times you get proved wrong, you always got something to say back. Pokemon bw2 is successful, it will be the second highest third installment in pokemon. That means your decline excuse is thrown out the window since it went up instead down. I prove that you lied about MH4, then instead of admiting your wrong when i clearly given you FACTS (something you dont do) you say something stupid like "It wont hit 5million". No body say that, just stop with your lies and ridiculous comments. Pokemon BW2 is successful and MH4 will sell more than you expected.

I've yet to be proven wrong since those games aren't out yet so we don't have sales numbers. The only fact that we have is that all franchises are selling less on the 3DS than the DS except for FE:A.

Shin Megami Tensei IV sold more than Strange Journey. More than even its best selling SMT title.

Ignore the North America part.  It's wrong because the game isn't out yet.  However, look at Japan sales for Rune Factory 4.  It did WAY better.

Also, Ace Attorney 5 did better in its first week than the best selling Ace Attorney game for the DS (even though it's marginally better, it's still better).

Since I never really tracked DS sales, it's hard for me to dig them up, but these aren't the only examples.
