Nintendo has money, much more money than Ubisoft, 50-60 million for a game that most likely is going to be awesome? why not? People are going to talk about the game and about the swtich. Michael Ancel is being mysterious with the game, just like ubisoft, but why? because they can't show the game just yet. And so happen that we have info about the development of the game after the rumors.

btw Nintendo EAD has been developing BOTW for 5 years, two versions of the game for wii u and switch, by the biggest Nintendo team ever, does that sounds like something cheap? I know that the graphics are not impressive, but the development cost of a game is more than pretty graphics.

Zelda: BOTW is a Nintendo made game that only needs to sell 2M to be considered successful. Western studios work in different ways. Games like Tomb Raider needed 5M to break even. Big AAA games are expensive. Unless BG&E2 will be a completely different game from the first one ofcourse.

I think you have that info wrong dear,  after 2m the game is profitable so 2m is to pay for the development cost, so to make money they need a lot more than 2m, which is going to be easy for this zelda. But why? not because the games are cheaply made, but because their biggest team just have 200 developers, while games like tomb raider and assassin's creed have a lot more developers, sometimes even 1000 developers because they are making the games for  3 platforms and a shorter period of time, not 5 years. Exclusive games don't need that quantity of developers.
