Not saying you're wrong, but where is the calc for GTAV being 16,733? If we look at the GTA drops from the lst VGC numbers that brings us to ~17,100. But I'm inclined to go for the direct reference to MH3 on 3DS as GFK has given us the exact % increase in relation to that title so we don't need any indirect reference to GTAV. If you believe MH4 >16,733 that means MH3 got >8,500 fw in the UK. That is a reasonably credible figure because it's still on the low side. 95% up on MH3 is good for sure. But I think GFK is overstating things a bit by saying that's real traction. It remains to be seen whether it will leg it out to also double LTD sales, or if as is the case with a lot of sequels there is somewhat more front loading of sales.
LoZ could be over 30K, we don't know. All we know is probably more than 15K and definitely <40K.
"Good for a Zelda / MH game on 3DS in the UK." Is both good and bad. Because in general good for 3DS in the UK isn't actually good across platform.
I gotta say 57% boost for N3DS also isn't setting the world on fire either, given 3DS's fairly low base (if VGC hardware is roughly correct). If the reception to N3DS is this muted around the world then we can expect a flat year at best for 3DS, which should mean a new handheld in 2016. If Nintendo is looking at a unified platform for home console and handheld it probably means both launching in the same year, which is looking more and more like 2016.

Got it from gaf. (GTA5 Sales)
Also for 3ds, its 57% boost to overall Sales not to 3ds only^ You keep reading it wrong though its common mistake.
