That crazy guy who predicted 20 million lifetime, eh. :D
X/Y shipped 7m FW and sold 4m FW so about 57% sell-through. If we go by the same supply/demand ratio for Sun/Moon then we could have 5.7m FW which would make it the fastest selling Pokemon game and with that the fastest selling Nintendo game to date. Amazing!
XY was a worldwide release, and shipped 7 million by end of the week when it released.
Pokémon SM is not even out yet, and while is coming tomorrow in Japan and USA, there are still 6 days before the Europe release (almost a week).
That's waaaay more impressive than XY.
But those 10m shippements are for all regions just like the 7m were for all regions. Right?
Not sure. I think so, but of course there a big chance Nintendo will ship even more copies tomorrow and expecially in Europe the next 6 days. Soooooooo...
POKEMANIA!!!
