Forums - Sales - Ocarina of Time remake has UK's second-biggest Zelda launch of all time

Second best launch of a Zelda game in the UK of all time:

- Easily biggest physical launch in the UK in 2026

- 35% ahead of BoTW

- Half of ToTK first week

This puts it at around 110k first week physical only. 

If the trend continues world wide, we might be looking at 5m copies launch week. I don't think it'll be far off that



Around the Network

Proportionally, it is 5 million in 3 days, considering that TotK sold 10 million in 3 days.

But it should sell better than TotK did in the coming months due to it being the prime Nintendo title during hollidays. It also probably has a larger digital footprint than TotK.

I am expecting around 10 million copies sold after the end of the fiscal year.



Crazy given the install-base of the system. For a remake to surpass something like Smash Ultimate would be incredible, especially when not even a decade ago there had yet to be a Zelda game to break 10M.
