Zelda doesn't resonate with JP quite like it does with NA/EU. Plus, as you state, I think EoW might be the biggest reason for those other two not selling too hot atm. If you want a Zelda game, you’re prolly looking at the new game that released a few months ago. Especially when Nintendo has been pushing ads on EoW over BotW/TotK.

That used to be the case, but Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have done Monster Hunter level sales in Japan, which is kind of crazy.

yeah, ik BotW/TotK have been massive for Zelda in JP. What I'm saying though is despite this recent increase in JP sales figures, the franchise remains most popular outside of Japan. Compare the JP figures of BotW/TotK with all other 20mil sellers from Nintendo, and you'll see Zelda's NA/EU roots still exist.
