Pretty much, and that can go for any game, Nioh sold a lot because of it's amazing reviews, same with Horizon, Zelda and now even Nier is going to sell more than it would have if it got like an 80. Metacritic does make a huge difference.
Again, no it isn't, Zelda is one of Nintendo biggest franchises and the Switch launched with pretty much one game. It's like being surprised if Halo sold that much if the XBO launched with it and it being the only game. Same with Uncharted. Zelda selling Horizon is not impressive, it's pretty much to be expected. And your first comment I replied to seemed to be stealth trashing Horizon. |
It wasnt the switches only games it launched with quite a few other games and its still impressive because of the large userbase. Horizon new IP or not is Sonys biggest game thus far this year and it came out on an userbase far bigger than what Zelda came out on. By Youre logic the Wii U version should have also did way better considering it has a bigger userbase. Also found more info saying PS4 sold 700k Jan last eyar so it wouldnt surprise me if its over 1m by now. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1065407
So Zelda on a 45k userbase was able to outsell Sonys biggest game of the year thus far with a userbase probably over 1m. If thats not impressive i dont know what is. Its not trashing a game.
