3 mistakes you made

1. 9 days not 8!

2. Sales are 517k in the US not 550k (you mixed up NoA with US) http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41609/USA/

3. Sales for Nintendo games aren't 10%-15%. All games vary but avg out (at least on 3DS) to about 3%-5%

Srry if i come off like an ***! Just being honest O.o

Here are facts though

Digital sales with 12 days in the US has reached over 100k

Also here is my comparison thread to Spirit tracks

Don't forget the Limited Edition Zelda 3DS XL includes a digital version of the game, not physical though. Wonder how many consoles they made. Picked one up at the weekend and my local GAME had a few in stock so looks like it was a pretty big run.

Having had a quick look at the game, I hope it manages the 6-10m mark. They've really nailed the feeling of Link to the Past and Link's awakening (something which I don't think the GBA/DS zeldas previously managed.)
