Will Nintendo Have The Top 5 Software Sales This Generation?

 

Of course i mean exclusives, as Multiplats that are huge, when combined have a couple 10mil+ sellers/etc.

Im talking straight up exclusives, of course all being on the 3ds. Wondering what could possibly break the top 5. Only thing that comes to mind atm are... (from Non Nintendo Platforms)

Halo 5/6, Uncharted 4, TLoU2, and Gran Turismo 7 (this i expect to be potentially the highest overall)

(srry guys, MK8 is doing extremely well, but the max i see for that game realistically is 8mil. And that'll be the highest)

 

As it currently stands, we have (all are shipment+digital) vs Estimate Lifetime

 

13.70mil: Pokemon XY    ⇒ Will End up Between  14.5mil-15mil Lifetime

11.42mil: Mario Kart 7    ⇒ Will End up Between 13mil-17mil Lifetime

 9.35mil: Pokemon ORAS ⇒ Will End up Between 10.5mil-12.5mil Lifetime

 9.12mil: SM3DL (as of march 2014) ⇒ Will End up Between 11mil-12mil Lifetime

 9.01mil: New Super Mario Bros 2  ⇒ Will End up Between 10mil-14mil Lifetime

 8.73mil: Animal Crossing New Leaf   ⇒ Will End up Between 10mil-12mil Lifetime

 6.19mil: Super Smash Bros 3DS     ⇒ Will End up Between 8mil-11mil Lifetime

~~~: Potential Pokemon Gen 7 Game (10mil+)

 

 

Thoughts? Will Nintendo Lead (with Top Selling Exclusives)

Edit: BTW, obviously 3ds been out for almost 4 years now, this is lifetime so pointing this out is meaningless :)



Around the Network

Well, if its exclusives and you are counting the handheld, the yea! I don't see why not.



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

IF its exclusives and 3DS counts then probably.

Only consoles? then nope.

Halo 5,Gran turismo 7,Gears of war 4,Uncharted 4 and TLOU 2 will be at [8-12] million range.

And WiiU will not have install base enough to allow a game to sell that much.(unless it's heavily bundled with 70%-80% attach rate)

Of course no wiiu games, that installbase killed it! If it had maybe 30mil userbase, then MK8 would have been a contender for the top spot ;)

Nintendo is leading just now with consoles sales, the biggest hitters haven't come out yet. But i do think MK8 has a chance to be in the top for awhile.
