Still slighlty worse than I thought. Better release window, marketing and higher userbase and barely outsold Arceus. I was expecting 1.7 million

For reference, this launch places Z-A as the second largest of Pokémon on Switch… meaning that, yes, Z-A outperformed a mainline entry (SwSh) which launched in mid-November. Unless you had unreasonable expectations, this should’ve been a much larger launch than expected. And with an entire holiday season in Z-A’s favor, it’ll most certainly smash through Arceus’s 14mil figure.

Why should selling only 4% more than Arceus, while having a much bigger installbase, and being a crossgen release, be "much larger than expected", "unless you had unreasonable expectation."

Are you saying people should have expected it to do worse than Arceus?
