pfft, in the end mario kart will outdo pearl as whatever new pokemon game will eat the tail of the older game's sales. MKDS has been a monolith on the npd's since 2005, it's frightening how much that has sold.

I don't think you guys realize that StarCraft II is both a Blizzard game and a sequel to StarCraft. :P

Halo Reach is the safe bet, but don't underestimate the power of Blizzard and the Starcraft name.

Pokemon. SS and HG sold 1.5 M just the first weekend in JP and my guess now is that it has sold over 4 M in JP now. I bet Pokemon will sell at least 20-30m units worldwide just a week after release.

Pokemon by far, not only is it guaranteed to sell millions on the name alone, but these are remakes of the most popular in the series.  It's no contest.
Halo or Starcraft will likely be number 2 though.
 
Zelda I don't see making it this year, despite what Nintendo are saying.

I am going to say Halo:Reach for best selling of the year because Mario will probably end up selling more but Nintendo fans are not necessarily got to get it now purchasers and Treyarch Call of Duty games in general don't sell as well.  Also, no God of War option?  I think that will probably be in top 5 selling of the year.

Pokemon simply because it sells really well in all territories.
 
Although I'd love to see Fifa 11 win.

Really you are going to compare ODST sales to anything.  a four hour campaign with no great new multiplayer.

That's a complete misconception. Did you know that the maps for that game are breaking 11 million downloads?

None of these options. Wii fit and sports resort will dominate as usual.

In fairness, Call of Duty is spread over three platforms.  Halo is on one.

S0ndor beat me to it. The reality is that Wii fit and sports resort are still selling like crazy. 
From the games actually being released in 2010. I would say its between Halo Reach and GT5. Fifa I do not think will make it as EA are doing a World Cup game as well this year, Blizzard have alienated too many fans for SC2 to be up there and I am too old to even guess if people still buy Pokemon.

Probably Super Mario Galaxy 2.  Look what New Super Mario Bros. did.

My first thought was Bad Company 2 because its multiplatform, and Reach is only 360. Then again Halo 3 sold really good aswell. I doubt the Call of Duty game by Treyarch will sell as good as both Modern Warfare games. I wonder what Nintendo has up its sleeve..

Halo Reach. Unfortunately. 
 
You should have included Fallout: New Vegas also.

Obviously Super Mario Galaxy 2. I'm curious how well SC2 will do, though, considering the PC's declining user base.

I don't know, but I hope it's Mass Effect 2. 
 
 
It won't be, but it sure as hell deserves it more than any other game on that list.

Also, piracys sky rocketed since 1998. I'm guessing that will have an effect on SC2's sales as well.

I bet the b.net being required for LAN and such will help sales, but yeah. Piracy is always a factor for PC games. Moreso than other platforms.

New Super Mario Bros.  Almost guaranteed.  Maybe halo reach?  I don't know... 
 
I'm hoping for Starcraft 2 myself.

Not necessarily. Halo 3 has sold like 10.7 million while SMG sold around 8.4 million. 
 
That said, I think Halo: Reach will sell the most this year.

Halo Reach will not sell more than Call of Duty 7, and maybe not even Final Fantasy. Reach is a Xbox 360 exclusive.

Call of Duty 7... very tough to beat that juggernaut. 
 
I'd go with something with Wii in it, but I don't see anything like that coming out this year. 
 
And Halo: Reach won't pass 6 million sold. I'm calling it.

I don't care. 
I play games based on the opinions of others and my own, not their sales figures.
