I remember even working in retail in the late 90s and a grandmother coming in to buy a Zelda DX on Game Boy Color and saying she knew the brand because she had taught her grand daughter how to read using the game and the instruction manual. Zelda may not make a billion right out of the gate, but I could definitely see 750 million+ and then subsequent sequel Zelda films having 1+ billion potential.

Much like not everyone knew Iron Man and Guardians of the Galaxy at one point were a C-tier Marvel IP.

I think putting those two in the same category is a bit much. In Nintendo terms, Iron Man before the MCU would be like Star Fox, whereas Guardians would be like a Golden Sun or something. Totally different realms of popularity. And yeah Zelda is for sure a bigger name than either of those were - it probably still is a bigger name than at least one of them.
