I don't think it is suddenly going to cause 3DS sales to skyrocket and remain there long term. But I haven't really seen anyone suggesting that it will either. I think OoT will have far and away the highest 1st week sales of a 3DS game yet. I think it will give a big boost for 2-3 weeks. But I think OoT is important because it will show if new software releases are what is needed to boost 3DS sales, or if sales are low because of a complete lack of interest in the system itself. If OoT can cause a significant boost for 2 weeks, then that will be promising for when a consistent batch of games starts releasing (like Resident Evil, Star Fox, etc.). If OoT only causes a minimal 3DS hardware boost for the 1st couple weeks then the 3DS is going to struggle in hardware sales for awhile.
