Mario Kart 8 DX + AC:NH definitley.

BOTW and SSBU... possible but I'm not convinced yet.

Everything else that is currently released won't make 30m. We'll have to see if any future titles can reach that success.

I'd say Smash is almost guaranteed at this point. Only ten million to go, doing over 1 million per non-holiday quarter. Presumably ~3.5 years until Switch is replaced. It's not gonna have a sequel cut off legs. And it will keep selling for the rest of Switch's life as one of the two premier multiplayer/party games on the system. I think Smash could go as high as 35 million - 15 million more sales with presumably roughly 15 quarters to go until Switch is replaced, give or take a couple quarters.

BotW is less assured, as we will have to see what effect BotW2 has on the original's sales. But it too is still doing over 1 million a quarter, and while I expect that to fall, it still could be over 30 million by late 2023.
