| Wyrdness said: Seems to be an intriguing situation for Nintendo since the Wii U as although the platform under-performed heavily it had an unusually high attach rate for some of the games which seems to have carried over to the Switch, that coupled with a unified userbase has lead to some positive feats for the software front as Zelda BOTW is set to become the best selling Zelda game of all time, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 became the best selling title in its series and Odyssey is set to become the best selling 3D Mario title. With the first party seemingly on fire is it possible that the other big 3 series can follow the same path as well, curious on everyone's current outlook?
Pokemon Best selling instalment: Red/Green/Blue at 32m Imo: Would be a mountain of a task to pull off but with the way the Switch is performing and the upcoming title essentially being the first mainline instalment ever made at a console level it's just as much of a possibility as it is difficult to achieve after all SMO is essentially a return of the SM64 approach many have wanted a return of and it moved 9m in 2 months, my current bold prediction for the game is that it will outsell Gold/Silver though so my personal verdict is that the series has seen an uphill climb in recent years and even delivering a competent instalment on the Switch could see it possibly happen but some other factors have to align, the game will be a monster but how much of a monster remains up in the air. |
Yes it can.
Why?
Because resolution matters:
It ll be the Monster Hunter Effect... It wont be held back, gameplay or graphically, by the 3DS anymore.
So it ll be the best Pokemon in forever, and will sell well (if the developers arnt lazy about it).
Metroid Prime 4 & Animal Crossing = im not as sure off.
