While true, it has been a systemseller, 14 zelda games has sold over 3 million copies. And this is probably the most hyped Zelda game ever even more so than OoT for the N64. It's always been kind of niche, but going the way they have with the game I can totally see it getting a new audience or even recapture a lost audience. I know that is the case in my neighbourhood of friends, they havnt been Nintendo owners for years (GC, N64) but after seeing the Zelda trailer and gameplay many of them said they were first day buyers. And I can imagine that is the case for many.


What I am trying to say, I do believe Zelda will be a killer app for the NX. =)

And Mario 64 sold 11 million copies. A big Mario adventure game should have been the launch game for NX if Nintendo is really serious about getting a large installed base fast.

I know Zelda BotW is going to be awesome and sell well, but a new benchmark Mario game would have did better sales wise for launching the NX.

But if we can't have Mario for NX launch, maybe we will get Luigi and some ghosts.
