That doesn't make it a trend, if both were seeing consecutive downs than u would have a case but console has one down and while handheld currently has 2 downs it will likely be a tie in the end or such a small decrease that it's really not worth mentioning.

The last console Zelda is at 4m, Wii U currently has 5 games over 4m, Zelda U selling over 4m isn't out of the question if it remains exclusive but I personally see it being a dual release like Twilight Princess was which makes me believe it will without a doubt sell over 4m.

That's what a trend is, change over time. On both consoles and handhelds, Zelda's recent entries have sold less than they did back in 2006-2007.

If Zelda U does manage to outsell Skyward Sword, (which is certainly not impossible) it will still be a far cry from the popularity the series enjoyed with Ocarina, TP, or the original game.

 

Ok, and 2006-2007 was peak of the series with Twilight Princess being the best selling home title and Phantom Hourglass being the best selling portable title, as long as the series doesn't decline to numbers below the typical title than the series is still healthy so 4+ million for home and 3+ million for portable.
