According to our own database here, Twilight Princess has sold 3.65 million copies on the Wii, in addition to 1.31 in Gamecube sales. That's almost 5 million exactly, for those too lazy to do the addition: monster sale numbers. In fact, here is the TOTAL list of current-gen games that have outsold Twilight Princess:

Wii Sports (9.21 mil)
Wii Play (5.31 mil)
Gears of War (4.51 mil)

So far, it's only managed to outsell all but 3 of its generational competitors, and 2 of those 3 are the bundled Wii Sports and the remote-included Wii Play. (I'm not even counting Gamecube sales; if you do, then TP has outsold Gears by a fair margin.) We're still early in the Wii's lifespan - the game hasn't even been re-released as a budget priced "greatest hits" game yet - so the lifetime total may end up considerably higher before all is said and done. The notion that Zelda "can't stand with the big boys of gaming" is ludicrous.

 

GeOW = 4.51 million.

 

Twilight Princess Wii - 3.65 + Gamecube 1.31 = 4.96M

 

4.96M > 4.51m, so shouldn't it be  third behind wii play and wii sports with gears in 4th?
