I'm not delusional, I just have expectations and I won't settle for a low performance from games that consistently generate sales of 10+ Million. I can't help that you lower your expectations so things can 'exceed' them.

★No just no. Your high *** expectations, look at all the sales, and which games they are! 

 

How do you know GameFreak expects less than 10 Million? Did they send out an official press release? I have a feeling GameFreak wants OR/AS to do comparably to the other two remakes. 10 Million seems like a good enough prediction, and one that isn't too out there. Afterall, the other two did 11 Million + and OR/AS falling short of that would not be a surprise. 

★ How do I know? Seriously? You dont need Gamefreak for this one. XY will do 14mil-16mil lifetime, those are New Pair Gen Games. This is a remake.

1. 3DS<<GBA<<<<<DS (install bases)

2. They are remakes of Gen 1 and Gen 2, by far the most popular games that sold 31mil and 23mil respectively. Remakes of them sold 12mil+12.6mil.

3, Just look at this ~ Pokemon Third Installment(*#Sequel) Compare the first game yellow with the others. Same scenario.

⇒ Yellow: 14.64mil ⇒ Pokemon Crstal: 6.39mil  ⇒ Emerald 6.41mil ⇒ Platinum: 7.60mil  ⇒ Black2/White2: 7.45mil

 There is no F***ing way OmegaRuby+Alpha Sapphire sell close to remakes that are based off 31mil+23mil sales and had both bigger install base!!!

 

Pokémon X/Y should be able to exceed B/W by a fair amount, not just match it. B/W were an ill-timed release and ended up selling the worst, X/Y came out during the prime of the 3DS and had started off better than several other entries. It wouldn't make sense for X/Y to sell worse than B/W, all I'm expecting X/Y to do now is outsell it. Tell me, how is that "high expectations"? I was never expecting X/Y to do 18+ Million, like some people.

★How is XY (around 12mil) going to surpass BW when it has 15.4mil by a fair amount? 

As for the 18mil+, Many predicted it cuz 3ds was doing extremely well at the time but of course gaming in general is falling way down, just look at the sales

Pls get that through your head.
