I remember seing some analyst say that Animal Crossing: New Horizons would sell 10mil lifetime in early March 2020. While not as monumentally stupid as this thread's subject article I still struggle to comprehend the thought process behind this prediction. Why would ACNH sell several millions less than New Leaf and Wild World? After the Switch was already selling faster than the 3DS with generally higher attachrates for it's games abd several franchises already being their series best sellers. With the immense hype around the game back then.
I just don't get it. I think I would have predicted 15mil back then.
