Ehm... If Nintendo had the stock for it I'm pretty sure Wii Fit would already come awfully close to those 3.5M in the next quarterly report. The way it is I'm more expecting something like 2M, so just not enough to make it into the top 10, but well enough to get a good mention during the IR meeting.

I agree. 3.5m is pretty much "worst case scenario". 2M shipped by the end of the year is actually the least I expect.

Well, then you should also see the problem with your prediction: RFA is selling as fast as it can due to stock, so sales will not falter nearly as much as normally after the holiday season and further down the line.

If you want to compare it's sales in Japan, I guess Splatoon on the Wii U is the best recent example: A surprise hit that caught Nintendo completely unaware in japan and where they had big problems supplying enough games to the market to satisfy demand. Ring Fit Adventure is living through exactly the same scenario right now. And I guess the situation is similar (if less "dire") in other countries, too. I guess we'll have to wait for the next QR to know for sure, though.
