The popularity of the Uncharted series has only been improving since the release of the original title on PS3, the newest title will be released on the most popular gaming platform of this generation next year, meanwhile, Zelda U is coming off on a series with a declining popularity and will be releasing on the worst selling console of the generation.
It's pretty much a no brainer that Uncharted 4 will outsell it, however, just to make it more clear, sales of the 3 latest releases of each series (only home consoles and not counting HD rereleases)
| Uncharted | Zelda | ||||
| Game | Release Year | Sales | Game | Release Year | Sales |
| Uncharted | 2007 | 4.80m | Wind Waker | 2002 | 4.60m |
| Uncharted 2 | 2009 | 6.49m | Twilight Princess | 2006 | 8.60m* |
| Uncharted 3 | 2011 | 6.54m | Skyward Sword | 2011 | 3.80m |
| Total | - | 17.83m | Total | - | 17m |
*Sales include Wii & NGC versions (7m for Wii, 1.59M for NGC)
While total sales of the last three installements are very similar, the only Zelda game to outsell an Uncharted game was Twilight Princess, with WW and U1 having very similar sales and U3 vastly outselling Skyward Sword.
Let's talk about install base, what will the install base be of WiiU & PS4 by the time these games release? 15m for WiiU (if some crazy miracle happens, of course) meanwhile for PS4, 25m-30m, more?
Feel free to bump this thread in a couple of years or so.
