it will easily do that within a few months (max). but 300 people working on it for 5 years and it just needs 2 million to be successful?

I doubt that 300 worked constantly over the course of five years on it, or even that at any given time 300 worked on it. Some people will have only worked for a few months on it for a specific task. I assume a core team of 50-100 and additional workers especially on the finish line.

yeah i suppose you are right. but right now monolith soft has 100 people working on it. add to that what ever Nintendo has on the game and its certainly more than 50-100. 

i would have thought it would have taken more sales to be honest. this is new territory for nintendo, it got delayed, a lot. and they are working on new technology for it.
