Animal Crossing is more important on hand helds. Zelda beats AC on home consoles.

 

Would you say that Pokemon is bigger than Zelda? Animal Crossing is slowly catching up to Zelda with consoles and is extending the gap for HH's. I actually see AC passing Zelda console-wise with the Wii U too.

 

Yea, AC could actually become bigger than Zelda.  I believe AC has a more broader appeal than Zelda.  AC has the ability to attract more females towards the game than Zelda probably can pull in.  If you appeal to females more then that opens up your potential consumer base a lot.  Met a lot of people from women in their 20s, men in their 40s-50s, kids, etc that play AC.  So it seems like AC could easily become bigger than Zelda.
