Well, I guess the second game didn't do that much because the audience for Fire Emblem already bought a 3DS for the first one. I just wouldn't count out Fire Emblem as a system seller.

Speaking of system sellers, Octopath Traveller should also push the overall sales to a lesser degree as it opens the gates for classic JRPG fans

Thing is, the impact on sales was only relevant in Japan. A 35% boost during on launch, if i'm not mistaken.
I can't recall exact values, but for the US and Europe, the impact was lower.

Still, it could happen…
Personally, i'm just not expecting a reasonable impact on HW.

I have no idea how Octopath Traveller could do... Really, no idea.
Maybe it will be on of those games that it's either a success or a failure.
If it succeeds, i could see SE bringing more games like that to Switch - which is still good news!
