In the worst case scenario it will still sell 1M units even if it's priced at $60 ...

The franchise is on a decline anyways ever since it became annualized and HAL Laboratory don't care as much for quality control anymore or aim beyond just decency ...

What decline are you speaking of?

Dreamland (1992)-5.13 million

Pinball Land (1993)-2.19 million

Adventure (1993)-1.75 million

Dream Land 2 (1995)-2.36 million

Super Star (1996)-1.44 million

Block Ball (1996)-0.32 million

Star Stacker (1997)-0.22 million

Dream Course (1997)-0.59 million

Dream Land 3 (1997)-0.36 million

Crystal Shards (2000)-1.77 million

Tilt N Tumble (2001)-1.23 million

Nightmare in Dreamland (2002)-2.27 million

Air Ride (2003)-1.62 million

Amazing Mirror (2004)-1.64 million

Canvas Curse (2005)-0.72 million

Squeak Squad (2006)-1.94 million

Super Star Ultra (2008)-2.93 million

Epic Yarn (2010)-2.09 million

Mass Attack (2011)-1.00 million

Return to Dreamland (2011)-1.66 million

Triple Deluxe (2014)-1.95 million

Rainbow Curse (2015)-0.58 million

Planet Robobot (2016)-1.30 million

Battle Royale (2018)-0.18 million

 

Seems like Kirby is a pretty stable 1-2 million seller for the last 25 years with the exception of some poor selling spinoffs.
