Good for YW, is it popular throughout Europe? or just France and Spain?

Nice to see Zelda/Switch holding.

 

Spain and France seem to be the only Western countries that really like this.  Does all right in some other EU countries, but in those two it does noticeably better than anywhere else, other than obviously Japan.

I'm not sure if I'm buying the OP's hype here.  Last year, we kept getting the same "YW is #1-#5 on the French charts again!" stuff, yet the final numbers for 2016 had it out of the top 10 in that country, and having sold 200,000, which is fine, especially for a new franchise, but all the blaring threads/headlines made it seem like it was this phenomenon, rather than a game selling good, not great.  Despite its April 2016 release, a lot of games released in November beat it out in the 2016 yearly numbers in France.

Also, this is its debut week on the charts, and one of the games is below month-old Zelda.
