I think you'll find that the best selling game this gen already has or will be released this year or next year. I'm only saying that because games released late in a consoles life will have limited time to sell mass numbers before the next next-gen is released.
Also, the best sellers are usually well-known franchises. I can't see a completely new franchise best selling this gen.



Here's a reminder to everyone. Last gen these games all sold the following:

Mario Sunshine: 5.91 million
Halo 2: 8.29 million
Gran Turismo 4: 8.79 million

According to this site.



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

I think everyone agrees Mario Sunshine was sub-par for a Mario game and not reflective of Galaxies potential.

Don't know about GT4, although I know GT3 outsold it by a long shot. 

 



 

For consoles, I really think that Super Mario Galaxy will come out on top. Grand Theft Auto IV and Halo 3 will do extremely well, but I think Galaxy, appealing to a wider audience, will sell more. But if you include the handhelds, Nintendogs looks like the winner.



Currently Playing: Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart 8, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, Super Smash Bros for Wii U

Predictions:

Super Mario Galaxy will pass Super Mario 64 in total sales CORRECT!

Actually Nintendogs was bundled with a special Blue or Pink DS back in 2005. It came with Nintendogs: Best Friends Edition or something. The thing cost 150USD.
