I see ARMS 2 reaching 4+

I hope there is an ARMS 2! It's a promising potential franchise.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

Nintendo Moba

Nintendo Smash RPG open world game with staple characters.

Hardcore photo realistic gritty Pokemon RPG open world.

Paper Mario (if they return to TTYD formula)

Metroid Prime

Any of these will be 10 mil plus series if done correctly.

You made up the first three. =P

I stand by them. The fact that they don't exist yet is stupid. Nintendo could make a butt ton of money off them and appeal to their more hardcore adult crowds with them.

Hmmm... not sure if serious :P

Iirc the best selling Prime game is under 3m, so 4 would have to actually smash the previous highest seller out of the park. Not sure if it has broad enough mainstream appeal to do so but I guess we could get a "Breath of the wild scenario".

If it's done correctly and marketed well I think it could. GameCube bombed so the first two can't be blamed for bad sales. 3 was controversial if I remember and not well received, plus Wii more only limited it's sales. If 4 has optional joycons conytrolls, not required, is a visual masterpiece, and is marketed well then it could be 10 mil. Also if it doesn't release in the last year of Switch life, maybe even last two. It needs time to grow before a new console comes out unless it is a launch title itself.

Luigi's Mansion probably. LM 3 its sold over 5m. I think its the one IP thats doing good that is yet to reach 10m in sales.
Or maybe Arms. Im just waiting for its sequel: Legs. Thats probably gonna sell over 10m.

LM3 has a good shot imo. As for "Legs", it gets my vote, as long as hitmonlee is a playable "guest" character!

Colour me sceptical but i'd love to see it happen! If any Nintendo franchise deserves to do it, Metroid does. I just can't see it branching out enough to garner enough mainstream appeal if i'm honest, however much and well it is marketed.

Realistically our only chance right now would LM3 or a new IP in a not so distant future.

Tomadachi life has a shot.

I don't have it, but for me this is one of the most beautiful game Nintendo has ever produced. I was expecting much more sales but I was ignoring that new IP need time to grow up. The game was also in the first wave of the Switch, and just between Zelda and MK8, he would sell much more if it was released today.

Did Splatoon 2 already pass that mark? If not, then I'd say that one.

It wasn't long ago that Zelda 3d games were mostly niche as well, except OoT. The same thing could happen with MP.

I do agree with that but I still can't see MP4 getting such a sales boost to that extent but I wouldn't be sad if it did.
