8-10 million, i think this game will fall off a cliff sales wise.

Is this serious post? Game will be at around 10m at end of this year alone. LT should be at around 15m at least. Also, game has great WOM, its expected it will have very strong legs.

I don't think 15m is the minimum. Pokemon X/Y and Sun/Moon only just passed 16m and opened much higher. Pokemon games haven't had very strong legs recently.

Sun/Moon shipped 14.69m in it's first quarter, and has since only shipped another 1.44m. 

Ultra Sun/Moon shipped 7.17m in it's first quarter, and afterwards only another 0.79m.

X/Y had the best legs, 12.26m first two quarters, and afterwards another 4.08m.

But yeah, Pokemon games aren't known for legs like other Nintendo games, they tend to sell a lot very quickly, but after the initial holiday rush don't do much the next year. Let's Go may prove to be different, but this remains to be seen.

Game should ship 10-12m this year, lifetime maybe 14m.

Because they're "impossible to predict" and you "don't care".

I'm sure there's something you do care about you can do with your time.

You've changed, Barkley. Is it the Skeletor avatar?
