Doesn't make the game any less big than what it is.
The fact of the matter is, people were willing to pay $360 + tax, minimum, to play just Zelda on the Switch. The game sold more copies (2.76) than the Switch shipped units (2.74) in its first month, over a 100% attach rate. There are very, very, VERY few franchises capable of that.
And it has consistently remained among the top selling games 8 months after its release, despite new releases coming out for the Switch. Kind of like how Grand Theft Auto V has kept selling consistently great despite coming out on PS4 3 years ago AND being a port. Breath of the Wild is the Switch's GTA V. It's gonna keep going, and going, and going, and going, for a looong time.
