ALBW will sell better. So far, NO remake has ever out sold the original, and what did MM sell on N64? 2m? No more than 3m I think. Therefore it's only logical to conclude that ALBW will sell more - that game will hit 3m sooner or later. Don't think that internet hype amongst Zelda fans will translate into massive sales for MM3D

3.36 million according to VGChartz for MM on the N64. 

I do see what you're saying about a remake not outselling an original, but if it was going to happen it would be here. Install base is a lot larger and there is a lot of hype coming from this, especially with the preorders. 

That being said I'm not saying you're wrong, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it doesn't outsell it :) , I just think if any Zelda remake can it will be this one.

OoT sold 7.6m on N64 and 3.6m 3DS, that's roughly half the copies for THE best game EVER. Think a somewhat quirky sequal to that will fare any better? I think not. MM have always been a favorite amongst the Zelda hardcore, but that's a pretty small group of people. I say the remake will never ever reach 3m in sales, and might end up just over a little more than 2m. It will never outsell ALBW
