@curl-6 To be fair, I always thought SV would have a bigger debut than SWSH because of the bigger install base, much like how SM opened bigger than XY (buoyed by Pokemon Go, but still) and BW opening bigger than DP. The question is whether or not SV could actually outsell SWSH lifetime. You mentioned Splatoon 3, which is selling gangbusters. I did expect it to start bigger than Splatoon 2, but it has actually been much bigger than I thought.
The idea that these two games can outsell their Switch debut counterparts is pretty incredible. Makes you wonder what Tears of the Kingdom can do. I could see it selling over 30m, but still falling short of BOTW by at least close to 10m, though I originally felt that SWSH and Splatoon 2 were never going to be topped by SV & Splatoon 3. We'll see what happens!
