It already feels like most people are going to buy this game. I think a lot of people are thinking along the lines of 'this is what sw/sh should have been' and will get this game, and some people didn't bother with sw/sh cuz it was the same old thing and they will get this game. I think it'll sell a lot more than the d/p remake and even that I think could hit 15 million. If Game Freak could possibly put out some improvement patches to give it positive post-launch word of mouth I could see it getting up close to Sw/Sh numbers. Because the game is a new take on the pokemon formula it is possible the remakes coming out two months beforehand won't hurt it too much, maybe the people who bought the remakes just gradually pick it up over the course of the year instead of at launch. Anyway, it'll be interesting to here about launch numbers and quarterly numbers on both recent pokemon games.
