Pretty much that ^

I do not understand why people are even considering AstroBot as a fair competitor (in any way) to anything Zelda-related, to be honest.
AstroBot does not look bad at all, and I think it will do well, but not even close to Zelda EOW.

My vote goes for Zelda on both front.

Astro bot is currently 94 on metacritic. It's top selling on Amazon and seems like it's selling out at some places even in Japan 

I hope by "in any way" he wasn't including quality lol. Team Asobi had already proven themselves as a top tier developer with Astro Bot Rescue Mission, and the previews for the PS5 game were highly positive (often likened to Mario Galaxy in effect). While 2D Zelda did have a good chance winning reception, the odds were still against it.

Sales are a different story, but hopefully AstroBot explodes in popularity and surprises me. Word of mouth for the game seems generationally-good and could do it wonders.
