ok.... considering that 3DS is a little bit less popular than DS and the 2 Zelda's games on Ds did 5 and 3,5 mil... maybe 4.2 mil for A Link Between Worlds

Switch!!!

Lifetime? No less than 6 million.

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

I think it will sell about 4 million, not sure why u guys think it will be the best selling portable Zelda

OoT 3D did pretty well at over 3.15mil sales and it'll continue intill 3ds lifetime ends (maybe around 3.6mil-4.0mil). I think this game will surpass a remake (even if its OoT)

Well Links Awakening DX sold more than Oracle of Ages/Seasons and Link to the Past on GBA outsold Minish Cap. I think This game will outsell Ocarina of Time 3D but u cant rule out Zelda remakes outselling new titles.

No, it did not. Also, A Link to the Past also came with Four Swords. :P

Classic Zelda that people like will sell at least 6 to 8 million, always has always will. With nostalgia heavily powering this game I think it could close to NSBDS numbers. It will sell 17-25 million.

According to this site it did, and I have a hard time believing four swords was a big factor in sales

Why would nostalgia cause a game to sell 3x as much as the best selling title in the franchise?

That's because this site made a rather embarassing error.
