Makes sense, with Pokemon getting a new game sooner than later and AC only seeing the one release this generation making it an evergreen title

Pokemon will likely sell what AC's lt hits within it's first 10 months or at least by the time the next game arrives, AC has never even come within range of matching the first mainline Pokemon game's sales on the same platform even with the series growth (P/D outsold Wild World by 6m and X/Y outsold New Leaf by 4m) if anything this should be more AC can outsell the following games which is even a struggle itself as AC has only ever managed to outsell one mainline Pokemon after the first which was USUM which came out at the end of the 3DS' life.

To the people who are also saying about growth do you really think AC will have growth and Pokemon will have none? PLG has very possibly outsold every AC game in 4 months providing potential growth before SWSH has even landed.

I think this Animal Crossing is going to the first time a lot of people buy it. Would not be shocked to see Animal Crossing cross the 20 million mark which is more than what Sword/Shield will sell
