The problem with your reasoning is that E3 is not compromised of only Nintendo fans.Its actually very likely the number of Sony fans and Microsoft fans are higher than Nintendo fans.And if you go look at the information, Zelda has double the "attention" than Battlefield 1 which is at second.This is actually saying that alot of people who is talking about this game, either in a negative or positive light, is not only nintendo fans, but also fans from the other consoles.This goes to show how much zelda has turned the heads of people to its direction.

Not only that, but having a single game(which is a lie, since pokemon was there) wasnt the only thing that made it easier for Nintendo to get people attention.Dont get me wrong, I am not ignorant enough to say that it didnt help, because of course it did.After all, that was the only game that was available at the show from Nintendo.But saying this is the only reason it picked up this many people interest is completely ignorant.As I said before that you kindly ignored, you dont cut and divide the attention.The attention goes to the games that most picked your interest, that most picked your attention.If Sony had a Legend Of Zelda-level of quality game on the show, it would draw as much attention as Breath of the Wild, no matter how many games there are.This is how things works.The only thing that would be different is that the games that were less appealing are just ignored, or simplly left in the side.

And by bashing, I meant you trying to twist the information to make it not look good for Zelda.Again dont get me wrong, this may not mean that sales will be 10 million +, but its a good sign.

I think you're underestimating Nintendo fans, to be honest, and also underestimating the effect of making one game the center of your presentation.

Let's take these forums as an example.  Last night, I remember counting 10 "Zelda" threads on my Hot Topics list.  The same group of people were going into different threads to talk about cooking in Zelda, as opposed to the voices in Zelda.  One group of people with their full and undivided attention on Zelda.  

On the other hand, we has several Zero Dawn threads but there was also a God of War thread, a Kojima thread, a Biohazard thread, and many others for PS4 and Xbox One.  Everyone was picking their favorite game and spending most of their time talking about it.  What happens, though, when there is really only one game to talk about?  Yeah, everyone talks about that one game.  I don't think that's a radical conclusion.

Am I saying that Zelda doesn't deserve to be the number one most talked about game?  No, I'm not, but I do think people are trying to make way too much of this survey.  Nintendo fans are pretty much only talking about Zelda and they're talking about it a LOT.  That's going to be a significant factor.  

Reminds me of when big deals were made about Wii U trending worldwide.  People make too much of social media.

Then again, this forums has a big Nintendo fanbase.And in those same Zelda threads you mentioned, alot of people from other fanbases joined the discussion.

But I will give you that it could mean either way.I mean, I still believe in what I said, and alot of things back up what I said.This data, the ridiculous line at E3 for Zelda, the number of views for the Zelda trailer at Nintendo youtube and so on.But its just that the people that are saying that this dont mean much are trying a bit too hard to downplay without the best of intentions in my opinion.

And yeah, this dosent mean that the game will sell everything the fans are making it to be, but its a good start.I mean, this keeps the possibility of that.If it didnt have the attention, it would have no chance at all.
