Is it pretty much assured Twilight Princess will always be second place to Ocarina Of Time in terms of total sales now?

Overall though, if we include every game, OOT will have sold the most. OOT N64 also outsold TP on either system individually.

 

 

Well you see, here is the problem with your way of thinking on this.  The Wii/GC was a simultaneous release, so adding them against Zelda 64 is justified.  However you cannot include the remakes in this equation due to console install base.

 

The amount of potential buyers for the 3DS is a lot higher than that of the WiiU, so it is a no brainer which will sell more.  Your logic for this comparison is very flawed to say the least.

With that logic you should take in count the install base of both games in its original release.
