That's pretty comprehensive that people would never imagine that the Wii successor, a console that did 100m+ on a few years of support, would bomb THAT hard. It wasn't logic to think of that at all back in the day.
But as you can see on this first page you mentioned, most people believed it would do around 50m, which is already a big drop and a way of saying that the console featured many wrong decisions and concepts. They just couldn't imagine the system would struggle to hit 15 or 20m. :P
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
