OT: I believe it can go past the 1 million mark, but it depends a lot more on advertisement. I placed 500-750 on the poll, though, which I think is more likely.

500K would seem amazing to me. Put me in the 200-350K column. It could do better if lucky, but I don't see it higher then 400-450K. |
It's already got 100,000 US preorders before the Nintendo Direct hit. It was also before the bundles/free game were announced. Since then the game has been in the gamestop top best seller.
I love how the closer it gets to launch, the less people say it will do poorly. Pavolink is always one of those though...no stopping that shoot.

I had the nerve to say that MK8 would fail to sell 350k first week

Mario Kart Wii: 2 million first week on a user base of 25 million @ $49.99.
VGChartz Nintendo fan logic (for some users): Mario Kart 8, 1 million first week on a user base of 6 million @ $59.99 because *insert wrong reason here*

If I was a mod, I would have done the same thing.
At the moment we have over 100.000 pre-orders and I think till the release it will be increase to 150.000 or 200.000. than the bundles will go out like bread. Maybe 300.000-500.000 unites will be go out in the first weak I think.
Zelda - Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch.... Incredable!!!
It's possible. It'll sell more than 300K in japan alone.

lol, besides for the mockery of wat? 2 or 3 people whats your prediction since your very educated?
Edit: Even though its a lesser argument, MK7 did way over a mil with an 8mil user base. Dont bass this off my prediction, im just telling you since you love to put Nin Fans together :p
It's not completely out of the realms of possibility but I think it's relatively unlikely given the userbase. I think 500-600K should be relatively easily achievable though.
Guaranteed though that there will be any number of threads proclaiming the game as a failure for not selling 1 million in its first week.
