Odyssey will easily sell millions for the next few years...it'll be a top 50 game for this generation

I think that's a safe bet to make. Nintendo are betting a lot on this one too! 

I know people who grew up in the 90's typically place Mario 64 as one of their top games ever in that period of gaming. I don't think it's naive to assume Odyssey will have the same reception

Will still be hard to top BOTW tbh as good as the game looks that's still a mountain to climb with what BOTW pulled off.

I don't think Odyssey will have any problem taking down BOTW.

Going to be game of the year easily.

I don't get why handheld & mobile are 1 category. Handheld games are a lot more like home console games than like mobile games.

wat

At least Ni no Kuni LOOKS like it might be family friendly. How the fuck did Life is Strange 2 end up in that category?

It narrowly beat out The Evil Within 2 :)

Whos honestly suprised

I'm a bit worried about the difficulty (or the rather, the lack thereof), but otherwise, it looks good.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

SMG sold 12.75 million copies, it will be interesting to follow if SMO can come close.

Uf, I dont know, Zelda BotW has 97 meatscore with over 50 perfect score. I expecting that Mario Odyssey will lend somewhere around 95 metascore, but am not sure if it will hit 97 or higher than that.

Mark my words, this game will be a large success. It may even sell over a million worldwide in its first week. I'm not watching too many videos, because I want to go into the game mostly blind. I haven't been this excited for a game since Super Smash Bros. 4.
