For a first party, especially Nintendo, the cost of marketing is higher than the production cost.
For BotW they built an entire E3 to it, and marketed a console launch around it. If you do the math 2 million would get them about 80 million, half of which probably went to marketing, 5 million minimum to global publishing. So the game might have cost around 35 million.
