Could 2015 be the Year of Xenoblade?

Lmao at it actually asking if it well sell on a Mario Kart or Smash level. I really hope that wasn't a serious question. But Nintendo definitely does seem to be pushing the franchise in hopes of bigger success, which I agree is funny since they refused to release the first game in the US for so long. It's not gonna be a Nintendo "pillar" or anything though.

On a side note, I always find it ironic Metroid is often considered a "pillar" for the company given the original and Prime 1 are the only two to sell much of anything, and neither hit 3m. Xenoblade X could possibly sell on par with a lot of Metroid games (around a mil).

For Wii U yes. Do you think 3 million sales is completely out of the question? 

I didn't know you meant on a "MK8 so far" level. But even still, 3.5m is too hard of a milestone for any non Square Enix JRPG to hit, especially on a small install base like Wii U. I'd say 2.5m tops lifetime for Xenoblade X, and that would be absolutely fantastic.
