What are the best selling Zelda games?
I am compiling a list of total combined sales of the franchise. These numbers are incomplete as a lot of eShop virtual console data is missing. Also, I am missing the GC Ocarina Master Quest release sales data which I cannot seem to find anywhere. I think Ocarina of Time could actually be over a million units short.
These are only the home console games.
Note, I am using IGN articles with incomplete data as a source for VC tales - if someone has a better source, please let me know:
Ocarina of Time - (N64, 3DS, Wii VC) - 11.96M
Twilight Princess (Wii, GC, Wii U) - 9.71M
Legend of Zelda (NES, GBA) - 7.40M
Link to the Past (SNES, GBA) - 7.31M
Wind Waker (GC, Wii U) - 6.29M
Majora's Mask - (N64, 3DS, Wii VC) - 5.85M
Adventure of Link (NES, GBA) - 5.08M
Skyward Sword (Wii) - 4.09M

http://www.ign.com/articles/2010/02/23/wiiware-virtual-console-sales-exposed - It gives 230K for Ocarina, and 210K for Majora's Mask, these are incomplete sales numbers, and I am missing data for other Zelda games since it just gives top 10.
MISSING - Legend of Zelda Master Quest sales data, does anyone know these figures?
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
