Yeah, I was skeptical that it would outsell Tri when it was first announced with the poor first trailer.
It'll be interesting to see if it will outsell XX (combined 3DS + Switch.) I think it has a decent chance of outselling just the 3DS version, but might end up being very close to 3DS + Switch at the end of it all.
It might depend on how much the rule of thumb from the OP holds true for this game.
"In general, we can extrapolate 1 point = 1k pre-orders in the whole of Japan. Do note that this is a very rough equivalence as several trends and factors (such as the platform, the franchise , the publisher, the time of year, etc.) can influence the numbers. Experience as shown that COMG! stores tend to be often skewed towards Sony titles. That means Sony games usually end up with >1 point = 1k pre-orders. On the other hand, Nintendo titles are rather <1 point = 1k pre-orders."

I guess it's because the MH customer base stopped grieving about having to buy a home console and instead moved on since those platforms offered higher craftsmanship to give an advantage or an incentive compared to previous games ...

What does this post even mean.
as far as what's quoted in the OP, it's really not the case for this generation. Their demographics have changed some and stores have closed. They get lower overall numbers than they would have so ratios are better.
