Breath of the Wild will be profitable once the game sells more than 2 million units, which is odd, because it sounds like a tiny quantity for the most ambitious Nintendo game of all time.

Doesn't count the game engine (most likely) , nor marketing, nor distribution.

I am pretty sure they count game engine because engine is one of biggest part of new game from development view.

Most likely scenario that Zelda engine will be used for some other games does not change anything because they had cost for that engine that is made for new Zelda, so they definitely including cost of new engine for Zelda cost.
