it will be interesting to see what kind of drop Hyrule Warriors has next week

usually Musou games drop down in sales very quickly, yet Nintendo games tend to have good legs - I wonder how this one will do

Zelda games don't have good legs though in Japan, iirc.

Thats not true.

Not recent console Zeldas at least

WW HD more than Tripled FW, thats legs bro. SS is one of the few that didnt have legs, why not get a comparison on every LoZ of last gen and current to be more fair?

 

 

This Gen...

WW HD  30k FW ~ 105k+ Lifetime   (Legs)

ALBW  224k FW ~ 411k+ Lifetime   (Ok Legs)

OoT 3D  166k FW ~ 569k+ Lifetime  (Amazing Legs)

 

Last Gen...

SS  198k FW ~ 365k Lifetime

TP  146k FW ~ 596k Lifetime

ST  306k FW ~ 740k Lifetime

PH 304k FW ~ 950k Lifetime

 

Sorry I don't count it as legs if it sells like 70k after its FW. Certainly not the "Nintendo legs" at least.

Last gen isn't relevant to the discussion here. WiiU is no Wii. WiiU is no 3DS/DS either. Well, I used Skyward Sword because at that point Wii was slipping fast. If this "Zelda" follows those legs it would end up with less than 150k lifetime. However, DW has even worse legs than Zelda so I'm not too optimistic for 150k.
