I think it's more about the reach of a frachise than genre itself. fifa and pes share the same genre yet pes barely sells (I'm aware there are more factors why this happens though) and you could hardly say it's mainstream anymore. Persona 5 will probably get close to 3M lt and that would mean it's one of the biggest jrpg series, it's not niche anymore

If the next Call of Duty ends up selling 1 copy, it's not all of a sudden a niche game. It's an unsuccessful mainstream game. Whether it'sniche or not doesn't change that easily.

Well I agree with that but cod is a different case, it's not a new, unknown ip. I know you were trying to make a point but if the next cod were to sell 1 copy unsuccessful would be too short to describe it hahah
