Uncharted 4 is going to be massive. Dont really see Zelda standing a chance :/

A chance of what?

Sales? Zelda sold much more overall (captain obvious moment) and the sales of the lastest games in both franchises are similar.

Quality? Zelda is recognized as one of the best franchises in the whole industry for a long time (lots of people even consider it THE best of all).

 

OT: Well, they're close, and you have to remember that the Zelda reveal was a surprise, while the Uncharted one was adversited for a long time.

What did the last mainline Zelda game sell?

What did he last mainline Uncharted game sell?

Difficult to say exactly since VGC tracking is really bad and they seem to have stopped tracking SS a long time ago. But, please take a look...

 

"As of December 2011, the game has recorded 3.41 million units of sales worldwide."

It's very reasonable to assume it sold at least an extra million in the last 2 years, no?

What about Uncharted 3? It sold like 6 or 7 million to date if I remember correctly. Then, it's really audacious to say that Zelda U has "no chances" against U4, since Zelda historically sells better and the latest mainline game in both franchises haven't sold THAT differently.

You could've said that U4 will sell better, and I would give you the benefit of doubt, since this is very possible. But it's not written in stone.
