That didnt really answer my question. And I would have to disagree, people could say whatever sales matter in the end. Money talks and all that. Best selling single Zelda game is still OOT for N64 and that system still only ended up selling about 35 mil? Im not saying it wont boost by being a launch title but I dont think its going to be that huge. Lifetime sales might be 7mil for NX version which is about what the series best games sell anyway |
I really don't see how this affect on Wii U owners, they will still get game even if come out few weeks later than NX version, that really doesn't change much for Wii U platform or Wii U owners. Nintendo already dont that with TP GC version.
If some game is system seller that doesn't mean that game alone will sell at least 20m of consoles or that console only beacuse of that game will sell 50m+, for instance in case of N64 I am pretty sure that without OoT N64 would sell at least 5-6m consoles less than it actualy sold, and just those 5m is huge number of consoles (around 15% from final number of sold consoles) just beacuse one game, also if OoT was N64 launch title N64 would sold more console than actualy was. So I dont saying NX version of BotW will sell tens of millions of NX consoles, but will definitely will help very much NX to take off and have successful launch and 1st year and thats very important for new platform. Wii U didnt had system seller or some hyped game in its whole 1st year, but Zelda BotW is very hyped and huge game and people are curently very exatited about NX even dont know anuthing yet just beacuse of this Zelda.
