In fact I'd go as far as to say they'll easily surpass those numbers day 1.
The Twitch numbers are also going to be huge. There are a lot of big number streamers expressing serious interest in playing classic. It could easily surpass 100,000 viewers on a regular basis putting it in the top 3 games list.
It's going to be insanely popular. I wonder if Blizzard quite realise just how popular it's going to be.
