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

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.

Exactly. I'm taking out all the ands ifs and buts, and just looking at which game has sold more overall. His argument also neglects the fact that the Gamecube and Wii version of the game was offered to a lot more people than the N64 version, and overall (Gamecube, Wii, Wii U) Twilight Princess was on systems that sold more than the combined sales of N64 and 3DS.

The odds were against OoT, and it still sold the most.
