RE:R - 1.3 Million

Mario and Sonic will clear 2 Million.

@MK What? Are you meaning a second MK title on the same platform? You do know they never do that. Right?

OT:

Mario Kart 7: 18-20 Million. It always has great legs and it always get's great holiday boosts.

SM3DL: 10 Million. It's selling quite well and has some great legs for a 3D Mario. Will get another Holiday Boost.

OoT 3D: 4 - 4.5 Million. I just don't see it doing much more.

Nintendogs + Cats: 6 - 7 Million? It's seems to have kind of flopped...

MHTriG: Western Release: 2.5 Seems about right.

RE:R: 1 - 1.5 Million. Depends on Holiday.

Mario and Sonic: 1-2 Million. Depends on Holiday.



Mario 3D Land - 11 m
Mario Kart 7 - 15 m
Zelda OOT 3D - 3,5 m
Nintendogs - 4 m
RE: Revelations - 1,25 m
Kid Icarus Uprising - 1,30 m
Star Fox 64 - 1.10 m

I'm not that optimistic on the 3DS, I love it but it ain't gonna pull the numbers de DS did. People who bought Nintendogs back in 2005 ain't gonna buy the 3DS version, they already know it's nothing more than a sim and it doesn't last longer than a season and the you don't touch it again... It's not innovative anymore...

Mario is gonna do superb, but NSMB2 is gonna be a much bigger seller. MK 7 isn't gonna sell as much as de DS one did, but it's gonna sell well nevertheless. Resident Evil won't have strong legs, and it's not gonna sell much more until it gets a price cut, the same goes for Metal Gear Solid, which is gonna be hard to find very soon. Then we have Kid Icarus, that didn't break the million mark yet, surprinsingly. I thought it was the flag title of the 3DS, since it was the first game shown for it at E3 2010, but at this rate, sales aren't gonna pick up soon. Star Fox 64 is amazing but it seems people is not very interested in remakes of old N64 games, so it will bearely break the million mark over time, as well as Zelda, wich sold really good actually, but it's not going to sell much more, unless there's a price drop. Look at Spirit Tracks, it suddenly stopped selling and there it is, static...

I really hope Luigi's Mansion and Kingdom Hearts break the 2 m barrier, those two games deserve big numbers! On regard with Monster Hunter, I think 3G is not gonna sell much more, it's a port of a game that was available for the Wii a couple of years ago, so people already played it... MH4 is gonna be a different story, I think that one's gonna sell much bigger numbers, close to the PSP games...



They also never called a MK by a number, or released 2 3D Mario games on one platform before SMG2.

Nintendo change things up from time to time and I see no reason why theyd call it Mario Kart 7, rather than Mario Kart 3DS.

In short, I expect a Mario Kart 3DS in the future.

Is that your only reason?

That's pretty cool! A thread like this (with all predictions) would be great! ^_^

I dont really need many more reasons, but okay.

I think the 3DS is gonna be around for a long, long time. Nintendo know that the DS could have gone on much longer and releasing 3DS so early turned out to be the biggest mistake in a long time. They will need to make money off the machine and due to the Vita tanking, support will also be much better than we saw on DS. This machine should last Nintendo a whole lot longer.

Nintendo are losing money. Nintendo makes money from SW... A 2nd MK for the system is easy money for Nintendo. It appeals to new consumers and the 15-20 Million that bought MK7... Nintendo need to make some money, huge IP does it for them.

Things added to MK7 I could see, (DLC) But I just can't see more than one MK on one system. 

I guess it could make sense since we have several Mario's on each system (even though they are "different")  but... it would just be so weird.
