Thats a pretty simplistic, narrow look.  Looking at current info, 3DS is performing far stronger than last year and the year before based on best seller lists, Sun and Moon are also trending better than both past 3DS entries in the series.  And we know for a fact that it is the most preordered Nintendo game ever.  And while Pokemon Go has diminished (being now "just" on the level of Candy Crush and Clash of Clans on Android), empirical evidence has proven that it has had a very real effect on 3DS and Pokemon brand strength, driving sales of both.  Those saying it will fail to outsell XY are ignoring all current evidence to the contrary.  And those saying it won't outsell ORAS are, frankly, being ridiculous.

PS:  Those saying the Switch will slow this down, no.  They've kept the 3DS and Switch at arm's length from each other for that reason.

Oh ok so this is your big argomentation.

Now stop saying stuff like this and reply to this question: how about Pokémon Sun and Moon pre orders higher than COD in some countries (withouth Japan), and how about the most pre ordered Nintendo game ever.

Guess I was right 😉
