Plus information on the million sellers for the quarter and updates on the total sales of top sellers as of June 31st.

Switch predictions.

Breath of the wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe both will have sold over a million this quarter(Mario Kart is already confirmed.) BOTW will be over 4 million and Mario Kart 8 will be lower than that by a fair but not massive margin.
ARMS will have fallen short of a million but will pass it next quarter 
1,2 Switch will have passed a million cumulative sales

Switch will be around 5 million and be above 15 million software but below 20 million.

MK8D won't be that far behind BOTW at all. The difference will definitely be less than a million.

ARMS won't show up on the data because it definitely hasn't crossed a million.

I think they won't share sales for Arms, but they'll give the generic "exceeding expectations" comment. I'm interested in seeing how much ground Mario Kart has gained on Zelda.

I think Mario Kart has outsold Zelda at this point to be honest.

My predictions for the full year.

Nintendo published Million sellers

Switch

Breath of the Wild
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
ARMS
1,2 Switch 
Splatoon 2
Pokémon Tournament DX
Super Mario Odyssey

Xenoblade 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors are only a maybe and rabbids is published by Ubisoft IIRC. Also Nintendo is publishing Skyrim. I could see it selling a million as long as it gets promoted decently.

3DS

Pokemon Ultra Sun/Moon
Pokémon Sun/Moon
Fire Emblem Echoes Shadows of Valentia
Kirby
Mario Kart 7
Metriod Return of Samus

Miitopia has a good chance I think. Launching the the same time as a new model will help sales and also it might catch on with the same crowd that ate up Tomodachi life in europe(seriously the game blew past 2 million sales there. But it being a RPG and later in the 3DS lifespan probably hurt its chances some. Also several evergreens like Smash Bros, and New Super Marios 2 would likely sell a million if given a Nintendo Selects release. Super Mario Maker is also a maybe.

You forgot the most consistent evergreen that has been on the million sellers since 2011. MK7.

Pikmin might have a chance as well.

Well, I mean, I guess that's fair.

Considering this stuff is posted on every console board, it is not exclusively a Switch thing. But nice try.

Considering how upset switch fanboys get when something implies the switch isn't perfect yes.

It helps to see the likelihood of games of certain genres, new IPs or less mainstream titles of getting more attention from Nintendo.

I don't really see the correlation between console sales and the slight possibility of 3rd party games getting any sort of marketing aid by Nintendo.
