The early comments didn't age well. Animal Crossing is going to crush Pokemon and every other game not named Mario Kart. This game is a phenomenon.

Not really because as good as AC has sold SS still sold 16m in it's first month and continues to sell the's also no third version this gen it might even already be the second best selling NS game at this point after Mario Kart AC does better in Japan than Pokemon but the latter in other regions often fairs a lot better and even then SS in Japan has still hit more than 4m.

Thing is Pokemon pulled those numbers during the holidays and AC is probably pulling similar numbers in the middle of March. Not to mention that AC will certainly have better legs just looking at how past installments in the franchise have held up while we can already see Pokemon slowing down, and the franchise has never really been leggy like other Nintendo IPs.
