Zelda- possibly (could go either way, really would need the Switch to do well long term though because I think the attach rate will drop a lot over time). Splatoon 2? no flipping way. 10 million will never happen. The game is to niche. Popular niche, yes. But kids who are squids? what did the first one sell, like 5 million? I just don't think it can double that, I think a lot of casuals will look at it and find it odd. Bear in mind part of what propelled Splatoon when it launched was the Wii U had droughts AND there was some media/gaming attention around its strange concept which helped build up attention. Splatoon will not do as well as Mario Odyssey and Zelda. Not even close. |
I can't really see how that "game is to niche" can sell 4.8m on instal base of 13.5m. It basically sold almost on same level like Smash Bros 4 (5.2m). Splatoon is so popular because it basically Mario Kart of shooters, not beacuse Wii U had droughts but beacuse its great, very interesting and fun game.
Splatoon 2 on much bigger instal base than Wii Us will sell much better, I dont say it will certainly pass 10m, but game will easily sell 7-8m, just in Japan will will sell easily 3-4m, so definitely has chances to pass 10m.

I'm sorry to break it down to you, but there is absolutely no way Splatoon is selling just one third of Zelda's numbers. |
Splatoon sold 4.8m on Wii U that had instal base of 13.5m, Splatoon2 on Switch that will have much bigger instal base will easily pass that number, probably will be 7m+ game. So are you saying that Zelda will sell more than 20m? :)
