Splatoon is a very serious contender for my game of generation so far

So sales are what you want?
Better drop the idea that Splatoon in even a contender for the GOTG so.

Tell me one new IP that could sell this well on a userbase of 10 million?

It's the big gap in userbases that I'm refering to.

Destiny did over 2m first week, when PS4 sales were 11m. When X1 hit 10m, Destiny already sold over 2m units there as well.
Watch Dogs was at 3m when PS4 hit 10m
Titanfall was at 2.4m when X1 hit 10m

3 of the most overhyped games of gaming history, including the most expensive game ever made, and that kind of "new Ip" that does not give anything new to the table, 2 CoD clones and a GTA wannabe.

The thing is, Destiny is about 5 m on a console with 24m, Titanfall is 2.5m at the moment and not growing anymore, it has sold less than 100k this year. However Splatoon, a truly new concept that didn´t get any mainstream hype until 2 weeks before (not 2 years like the others) and with a tiny fraction of the marketing budget, is on its way to sell 3 milions or more on a console that will hardly reach 15 milions. Do the maths.
