Its a much more attractive purchase having new content in the same generation vs the old days with just new move tutors/etc, My originally prediction was 9mil-10mil Lifetime, but it would be a huge achievement if it did pull over 11mil imo, especially considering HGSS/FRLG sales WW |
Iwata says the reason is because the same group who grew up with Ruby and Saphire also grew up with Melee, so having Smash 3DS boosted interest for this game as well.
