Hmmmm. Metroid Dread did 25k FW. So over 60% higher launch sales than Prime 4.

My expectation has been Prime 4 will sell more LT so hopefully it's done better in other regions or will have better legs.

Launch for Prime has been worse than for Dread, which is a bit strange since the common sense is 3D games have broader appeal compared to 2D game

My guess is people want to play it on Switch 2, and since there is a higher barrier entry (it's a brand new console), then many people will wait a few years/months until they can buy the console and play Metroid in the best possible hardware 

It will all comes down to WOM. If WOM is good, legs will be good and 5, 6 and even 7 million is possible 

If WOM is weak, it will sell less than Dread. Maybe 2 to 3 million 

Also I wouldn't be surprised if it actually sold considerably more than Dread on its first week considering the higher digital ratio we have nowadays
