The 3 multiplatforms did not cost nearly as much as 3 single platform PS4 exclusives would, so in reality it is quite cheap to port it to systems with similar specs and architecture. WW the 3DS games did not pass 4.3m. Without counting Iceborne, MHW sold 15.7m a 3.65 multiplier of the highest 3DS entry. With Iceborne it is 20.9m, a 4.86 multiplier.

It really isn't comparable.

You're wrong there as WW Generations sold 4.3m and MH4U sold 4.2m, the development of a HD game is well above that of a 3DS game not to mention you're missing the point you're saying it sold more WW yet ignored that it's on 3 platforms yet if you breakdown sales on each platform 3DS matches the sales of each platform if you add the sales of XX/Ultimate to Generations (which Capcom confirmed to be 3m with 1.8m of that on 3DS according to VGC) like you did with Iceborne to MHW that would put it 6.3m units.

Iceborne according to Capcom sold 5m and that's across 3 platforms meaning as far as platform performance goes MHW didn't really perform better WW than it did on 3DS it just did the same on more platforms so it's very much comparable.
