Depends, if NX is released soon I doubt it (even Gran Turismo sale were "cut" by the ps4 release). But in a "normal" console lifespan I think it could

NX is still far away, so it has a chance. New Super Mario Bros. U did too and was basically the same as 3 games before. Super Mario Maker is different and it's social with its online sharing. It definitely has a good chance!

I think it has a chance, it really just depends on the timing with NX.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

It'll be 3mil+ by end of 2015 (ship+digital). I can definitely see it above 4mil, as of 5mil it really depends. Nsmbu a launch game barely hit that figure. I know SMM is much better received but still!

I hope for 5mil

 

It's possible, T! Especially if NX has 2 forms (portable/console), then only the portable should release this year. 



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Maybe, but it would have been there a while ago had it been a launch game. Such a missed opportunity for the game and WiiU.

Sounds a little ovtracked to me so no, but i'm glad it's doing well.

It depends on when the next system is releasing, but I don't think it can...

It looks like a lot, but I didn't know it had sold so well! It's "close" to three million in less than six months and as you say it'll keep selling well. I'm expecting a re-release for NX portable for launch so that wouldn't be a problem at all. Only on wii u... it's not impossible, but maybe it can sell that much.

It's probably at 3m if we consider shipped + digital, which is amazing indeed.

It's more than amazing, for me it's unbelievable. I bought it day 1, two copies, one for me and one for a friend. I can't say I have enjoyed the game too much, it lacks so many things to be great, from enemies, bosses, items, backgrounds etc. My friend played it less than 3 hours, at least I've put more than 30 hours on it, so at least I don't feel that bad for spending money on it xD

I'm happy it has sold so well, but for me the game was really, really disappointing.
