ORAS won't even come close to XY numbers. If XY isn't the highest, the next Pokémon iteration will take the spot.


ORAS>XY....... in Europe!...... in Preorders!..... Yeahhh!.....

Not sure, but GT7 and or Halo 5 can outdo it.

Gran Turismo 7 (or evn 8) has a chance but it has to be one of the best selling in the franchise. Good thing is PS4 is dominating so it could be ps2 all over again.

Halo 5 though, i dunno. Halo 3 is close to 12mil and thats with X360, do we think Halo 5 will surpass that alone? Pokemon XY should have decent legs in NA+Europe so it'll leg out to no less than 14mil sold WW.

Seems as though those are the only franchises to maybe beat it. MK8 will be WiiU highest, but max it will sell is probably 9mil lifetime



possibly



Switch!!!

When you say "exclusive" do you mean a game that is only on one system, or are we also looking at multiplats, but only evaluating its highest selling SKU?

Straight up Exclusive, if we add in Muliplats but for each platform, my guess is only GTA6 on ps4 can beat it as well as mybe minecraft

On that note, Pokemon XY wins.  The only other game that has a chance is another Pokemon game (not OR/AS).  If the start of generation 7 is on the 3DS, then maybe, but i still think XY has a better chance.
