Don't jump to conclusions - nobody is claiming that. Fable IV could come out, be a masterpiece, and sell 10 million copies, but based on what we actually know, Zelda is the healthier franchise right now.

Wrong.

Right now Fable is healthier franchise. You disagree with that or you will accept what Fable was healthier franchise than Zelda in 2004. Choose wisely.

Back in 2004 it was a healthier franchise, but that is no longer the case. Have you really forgotten Twilight Princes?

Back in 2004 it wasn't even a franchise yet, one game does not make a franchise...

Based on this, Fable was bigger until 2006, then reclaimed the throne in 2009, then lost it again in 2012.

Wow, finally something.
Now we just must wait till Fable 4 will destroy new Zelda in sales.
And it will be official again.




Seriously, what actually is wrong with you? I mean, seriously?

I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Zelda fanbase < 1m.

Well, this thread was quite usefull. And this two statements - not my thoughts.
So deal with it.

 

 



Average sales per game - Zelda
Higher console tie ratio - Zelda
Non-bundled sales - Zelda
Merchandising - Zelda
Pop culture - Zelda
Longer history - Zelda
Metacritic average - Zelda
If you added a poll to this thread - Zelda

The answer to your question - Zelda.

Deal with it.

This is one of Vgchartz's weirdest dicussion out there. Seriously now, I love the Fable franchise, but Zelda is bigger and better by a mile away.



We haven't seen a new Fable game since 2010, and damn look at all those Zelda games.

Also, looks guys.

Fable XB 2004 Role-Playing Microsoft Game Studios 1.99 0.58 0.00 0.09 2.66
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures GC 2004 Action Nintendo 0.63 0.16 0.00 0.02 0.81

Fable was bigger than Zelda since 2004 (using logic of Fable:Journey comparison and Z:SS).


Based on this, Fable was bigger until 2006, then reclaimed the throne in 2009, then lost it again in 2012.

Fable has been bundled for the duration of its time this whole gen (and possibly last gen as well). I cannot remember the last Zelda bundled from Nintendo that I actually played. Microsoft was pretty much giving away Fable 2 and Forza 3 for free in Xbox 360 boxes. The same goes for Fable 3.
