I expect the minimum it can hit will be 7 million, but it could go as high as 10 million. A large installed base, hype with it being a new form of Zelda, a possible Christmas launch and a large advertising campaign from Nintendo could help it on the way to 10 million.

It largely depends on the marketing backing Nintendo gives this game. The wider market needs to be aware something BIG is coming to Wii-core gamers will buy this in their droves, especially if it moves the series forward and has a hype machine behind it, but Nintendo will need their expanded audience behind this to make it the biggest Zelda yet.
