What's the sense of this post?

Come on, dude.

Everybody on VGC knows how much you love Pokémon and how much you like to prove that it'll be the best selling single SKU this generation (well, it's actually 2 SKUs but whatever). And you may be right.

 

No matter what it's a close and an interesting sales battle.

Pokémon X/Y - 15.64 mill (official number, includes shipped and digital)
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 (PS4 only) - 14.42 mill (VGC number, does not include shipped and digital)
Grand Theft Auto V (PS4 only) - 12.06 mill (VGC number, does not include shipped and digital)

Pokémon S/M - ?
Gran Theft Auto VI (PS4 only) - ?

 

No harm meant. It's just your signature argument. Just look how your post continued.

So because i like Pokémon and i'm a Nintendo fan i can't discuss about this because i'm not realistic but i'm just a fanboy.

This is what you are saying.

It was already far above Pokemon. Ya know, since COD is multiplat and all...

This, Im all for comparing single SKUs but if thats the case you cant look at combined sales of the 2 Pokemon SKUs

Indeed I mean even if you wanted to suggest that Black Ops 3 didn't sell digital copies (which would be so incorrect) you also could just add on the 7+million units that the same game sold on the X1 and there you go, Pokemons numbers can't compete, then pile on the PC, PS3, Xbox360 versions on top of that, it's not even close.

I think you're misunderstanding. Many users on VGC has something that is their signature argument/opinion/etc. One of yours is that Pokémon X/Y sales are bigger than COD BO3. Nothing wrong or fanboyish about that. I even wrote "And you may be right."

No harm meant. Sorry if it came out as such.

GTA5 is probably the best selling title this gen, or minecraft. considering GTA5 sold roughly 30million after the PS4 and XB1 versions released. its safe to say that with PC,PS4 and XB1 are around 25 million

I'm referring to just 1 sku
