Topic	Zelda sells ten million
IceCreamOnStero 05/17/23 10:09:40 AM #13:	YellowSUV posted... Until Breath of the Wild, the Zelda series was never a huge seller (besides Ocarina of Time and to a lesser extent Twilight Princess). Even Skyward Sword, which was released on the super popular Wii sold only 4 million lifetime copies. The wii is a pretty poor receptor of popularity, because a lot of the Wii popularity was a fad. A lot of the monster sales weren't "hardcore gamers" who would invest into a game like Zelda. It was families who wanted to play Wii Sports and NSMBWii. That was doubly the case in late 2011. The Switch has a userbase composed of many more "core" gamers who would be interested in a long from single llayer experience. A remake of a Gameboy game sold 6 million on it, and the Skyward Sword re-release quickly matched the sales on the Wii. --- Dokkan ID: 2365415872 <cite>IceCreamOnStero posted [p:973526087] in Zelda sell...
