Smash Bros on the 3ds will probably sell more

No it won't, not even close

Smash bros 3DS Plus Wii U, won't even outsell Pokemon XY

Well... This is the first Smash Bros on handheld plus the Smash Bros on wiiU and 3ds have different stages that are unique to each other which gives more incentive to buy both copies... Also the wiiU's install base isn't nearly as high so I think it will outsell Pokemon XY

1. There has never been a smash bros game on a handheld, so it has no audience

2. No smash bros game has outsold a pokemon game, so i don't know how you get this idea, that this will change that.

Well... Technically, according to vgchartz (unless I am reading it wrong, still a noob here), Brawl has out sold: Pokémon Platinum, Pokemon Black / White 2, and Pokémon Heart Gold / Soul Silver on the DS... But I suppose you do have a point with the audience thing.

Even though thats true those arent a new gen pair games!

In pokemon there are 3 types of games (mainline)

New Gen Pair= Biggest in sales and are the games introducing the new generation with many changes+Additional Pokemon+New Region+Etc

Director's Cut= The third version of a game from the spinoffs. Introduces New Tutor Moves+Adds lots of extra Content+New Formes of Pokemon+The better version of the original pair(BW2 was different as it had a new story+extra feats in it)

Remakes= Even if they are remakes they are far surperior than their original counterparts due to what system it was originally on. These arent just your typical remakes, they beef up everything in it, making them feel like new games as well as a remake!

New Gen Pair= (15mil+ Sales) R/G/B+G/S+R/S+D/P+B/W+X/Y (6 games)

Directors Cut= (6.5mil-9mil) Yellow+Crstal+Emerald+Platinum+BW2 (5 games) [Yellow sold 14mil but it was a one time thing]

Remakes= (10.5mil-12mil) FireRed/LeafGreen+HeartGold/SoulSilver (2 games)

3DS will have a Ruby/Sapphire Remake and it'll sell less than the others but still do really well. Pokemon XY will sell over at least 14mil
