Will Splatoon be able to outsell any major exclusives from Sony or Microsoft this year?

You have it the other way around. Online Only games like Splatoon are the ones that sell most of the LT sales in their first week, and then drop off quickly. look at stuff like Titanfall, and Evolve. 

And Souls games have ridiculous legs, infact their opening numbers only account for less than 20% of the LT sales. 

Nintendo's high profile releases are renowned for their legs, especially multiplayer focussed ones like Mario Kart and Smash. Splatoon will very likely continue this trend; I would not be at all surprised if it too sold less than 20% of it's lifetime sales week one.

Are you seriously lumping Splatoon with Smash and Mario Kart?lol

I think it'll be more in line with stuff like Wonderful 101, or at best Pikmin.
