Possible. There are 10m WiiU owners. They have to buy something during the holiday season and this one has the best chances to be that game.

I dont think its that bold at all, there's pretty much no competition and mario maker does seem big

Not so bold of a prediction, imo. Especially if it's bundled.

It depends on how Nintendo promotes the title. They did it very well with Splatoon.

eh, doubt it. Halo 5 will sell more by 1/1/2016

And? That's not proof that SMM won't sell 2m.

If they bundled this during the holidays it could sell an enormous amount of systems. They really need to do this.

You need the one bundled game to get everyone involved. Wii has it with Wii Sports. The 40 million that bought it just for that title alone only needed to grab the system and they were good to go.

just another prediction.  I really dunno, I think it will be close. 

Why not.

need to see pre-order figures before the game launches. i still think it can. but it really needs marketing, which Nintendo started to do with Best Buy, it just needs follow up marketing in the upcoming weeks leading to the release date.
