I mean, you believe BotW, Odyssey and Splatoon 2 will outsell Pokémon, 2D Mario, Animal Crossing and Smash Bros.? That show how clueless you are. And I listed 5 franchises, which is more than enough if they put out 2 per year. Not to mention second versions of the big franchises you mentioned and new IPs. lol

you forgot mario kart 8, both mario games will do over 40 million together and zelda is on its way to 10 million, splatoon maybe 8 million, thats 58 million, pokemon will do 20 million, the other 3, 35 million together, not that clueless when you think about things ;)

Wow, I'm impressed. I've seen people try to spin stuff before, but this is a whole new level. Btw, you just proved my point with your math.

Just one more thing: I agree that both Mario games will do >40m together, but that doesn't stop 2D Mario being bigger than 3D Mario (Odyssey). Pokémon alone will be bigger than Zelda and Splatoon 2 combined, so there you go... 3 of the big 4 you mentioned are already "gone". I think you're confused and actually didn't do your math. It's kinda hard to predict exact numbers for future games, but knowing that they're historically bigger than the ones already released, except for MK (which is an evergreen title that will sell most of its lifetime sales after the first year on the market), there's no reason to underestimate them.
