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.

Yes, I never said the game is not excellent or high-quality. It is selling well, but it is not in the same league as Zelda.
This is a thread about sales, not quality, not sure how linking the Metacritic is related to how much the game will sales compared to Zelda; those are 2 different things.

The thread is about both sales and critical reception, you predicted Zelda would win both sales and critical reception in your original post.
