The Switch version of Breath of the Wild shipped 17.41m by March 31st. Lifetime sales expectations?

If Botw 2 allows you to bring the same character, armor, weapons, hearts from your Botw 1 character then that will help the original games sales. If it forces us to start from scratch again, then 2 will hurt the originals sales.

That’s not how it works lol.

"If"

I was being hopeful. One day I'd like to think games will be designed in a way so literally YOUR character (not simply the character) transfers in sequels, with all their skills and personalized items, all their conversations and decisions they've made, intact. Mass Effect did move us along quite a bit in that regard. Why Can't Botw 2 reference side quests I've completed, or how I defeated the boss, from the first game if the safe file is available on my Switch? I know it would take some coding, but it would be a really cool feature that would give a sense of continuity to the sequel.
