People should consider that not every game on that list had the same numbers of days to reach that number. GOW only had a few days while Spiderman, like Smash had almost all the month to reach that number

Considering that, Ultimate is going to destroy the record...., i expect 4M+ in USA alone in December.

I agree, but also people need to be aware of install basis also, GoW and Spiderman are launched on much higher install base than Smash Ultimate did.

If you ask me, install base is the most overrated thing in sales discussions. I think people that buy a Nintendo console buy for the same games (Mario, Kart, Zelda, etc...) always and when a Smash comes, all the people that wants the game already have a console or is buying the console for the game. That's why Smash is probably going to be the best selling Switch game at launch in USA even when the gen is over, you'll see....
