"Skyward Sword sold 3 mil. on 100 mil installed hardware base and people expects that millions will go and buy an NX to play the next zelda"

That's directly comparing Skyward Sword with Zelda U port for NX, but you needed to TP Wii with most likely Zelda U port on NX.

Twilight princess is 10 years ago. 

Also people bought the wii because of motion controls and then got twilight princess. Twilight princess alone didnt moved much consoles.

 

Also your right, in this point I compared them. Just to show zelda is not that popular and ost even popularity in the past years.

If a game franchise just sells 3mio on cheap and popular hardware already 95mio people got, the next installment will not move consoles.

If NX will be a success, that wont be because of zelda U.

When was TP doesnt matter, point is same.

Most people buyed Wii because of Motion Controls, but some people buyed Wii because TP. I know for reports that on Wii launch Wii TP was sold everywhere.

Skyward Sword is just one and pretty bad example, because arrived on dead platform and needed addon or different controller to be played. Also Skyward Sword sold 4m not 3m.

If NX will be success part of that success will definitely be because of great launch with great launch lineup including Zelda U, same like part of credit of great launch for Wii has TP.
