3.89 million sales for Zelda is a good half million more than what I was expecting for Q4

I was thinking the more mixed reception would make Zelda sales implode, but it doesn't seem to be the case. 5 million+ is locked for Zelda

Astrobot can reach 5 million but it will take at least the whole year, and it's nothing sure it will. Even after winning AOTY the game comeback to the charts was pretty mild, solid but mild


I'm changing my opinion. I think Zelda will win in sales, selling in a 5-6 million range

Benefits Zelda has over Astro Bot:

Bigger IP, also selling well in all major markets, while Astro Bot is getting low sales in Japan.

It would be embarrasing for Astro if they lost: Its GOTY 2024, has the PS5Pro behind it and it was hyped like crazy. If a 2D top down Zelda sells more on a handheld thats about to be replaced that would be quite embarrasing. Well, i guess we do not even have to start sending Mario in, if Astro got outsold by a small Zelda game, heavely critisized by its fans... I really do not want to hurt anyones feelings here but thats the way it looks right now. 1,5 million in 2 months vs 2,58 million in a few days is like day and night! There is no way to spin that around or even excuse that. People thinking this could only remotley come close to Mario's sales should give up drinking or smoking wired stuff!🙂 This prediction was just crazy!
