reminds me of what people thought about Zelda before Breath of the Wild went on and shattered the sales records of the series

Not really a comparison. Firstly Zelda has a lot more games released and always had ups and downs sales wise. There was no downwards spiral like with the Prime games that occurred after the first one.

Well, let's look at the data here, shall we?

Twilight Princess sold more than Skyward sword, which sold more than A Link between Worlds, which sold more than Majora's Mask 3D, which sold more than Tri Force Heroes - and they released in that order until Breath of the Wild released.

So yes, this really compares well as Zelda also seemingly was on the decline before Breath of the Wild showed how well a great Zelda title can sell
