Final Fantasy used to be one of the biggest Franchise ... Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy X this was when JRPG were super popular.

Trends come and go. Were JRPGs super popular before FF VII, nope. Nothing is stoping Xenoblade X from becoming the next main popular JRPG. At least popular enough to reach 3 mil. 

You answered your own question. JRPGs are not as popular as they were so common sense would state that ALL JRPGS would suffer, so thats just making Xenoblade; especially Xenoblade X job that much harder. Whats keeping from being the next IT JRPG? The fact that is isnt teh IT JRPG. That honor goes to FF no matter what happens to that series it will spank others for the forseeable future. Hell I would say Kingdom Hearts would do better. 3 mil is insane. I am willing ot bet it wont reach that lifetime, especially not with Wii U numbers.

Which is sad, because that series over time has just become absolute garbage IMO. 

That is not an opinion shared by most. Yes i thought 13 sucked. But that is one dud out of how many games they have released since NES days. So they kind of earned a the benefit of the doubt. Xenoblade has a LONG way to go to even get within spitting distance of that kind of acclaim and popularity
