Wat are these several exclusives? I only see GT being close. And even xbox exclusives being? Halo 5/6 are the only gamesi see hitting 10mil+. Halo 3 was around 12mil, MK7 is already close to that figure.

For reference, i think only Gran Turismo/Halo/Kinect Sports were the only last gen exclusives hitting 10mil. 

Dont know what these several exclusives your talking about are

You are comparing a system that has peaked its lifetime (3DS) with the others that has barely crossed 1 year (PS4 / X1). This is why I am not specifying anything. We dont know any specific games. My defense for my logic is "install base" of PS4. Unlike last gen where PS3 was exclusive box or blu ray box this gen its gaming box. And if you want something specific then uncharted 4 might do it first.

Point taken. That said im looking at overall everything in the gaming past and present into account. You said several when im looking at the fact that not even many games get close to the 10mil Figure (exclusives).

Lets see, here are all the games (franchises) that hit 10mil let alone 12mil+ that weren't on Nintendo consoles/HHs...

~Grand Theft Auto

~Kinect Sports

~Gran Turismo

~Halo

Thats it. Out of the 4 i listed, GTA is no longer Exclusive game and Kinect Sports died with Wii Sports/etc last gen. That leaves both Halo which highest seller was H3 with around 12mil sold and GT only franchise i seeing being close to MK7/XY figures due to PS4 European Domination with GT7/GT8.

There definitely could be new IPs/etc that can miraculously hit 10mil, but again it needs to miraculously hit 10mil first before even getting close to MK7 figures now.

Also Uncharted 4... I mean i know damn well its going to sell extremely well, but you honestly are expecting this to hit 13mil+ lifetime??? Thats freaking HUGE!!!!!!
