Late port of a game available on a home console (so the inferior version). So by the logic of many on this forum it will tank. However I suspect the logic of many in this forum is completely wrong so I think it'll crack a million.

Will be nice to dispell more myths though.

Good luck with that. You'll need it.

I expect the game to sell between 400-600k. In Japan it will sell about the same as the Wii U version, in the rest of the world it will fall short by quite a big margin.


Well forum logic would dictate sub 100k so I'd still be happy with that ;p

2 M or more

I don't know, but I'm definitely getting it. I had absolutely no interest in Hyrule Warriors for the Wii U, but I would get it day one on the 3DS.

I think it will beat the Wii U version, but not by much

So, you're predicting barely more than Samurai Warriors on 3DS?

Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3DS 2011 Action Tecmo Koei 0.12 0.04 0.20 0.01 0.37

Look at the difference between Hyrule Warriors Wii U and Warriors Orochi

  Hyrule Warriors           WiiU 2014 Action Nintendo 0.45 0.28 0.12 0.07 0.92
Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper WiiU 2012 Action Tecmo Koei 0.03 0.02 0.02 0.00 0.07

With 3DS's install base compared to WiiU, I think Hyrule Warriors 3DS should have no problem selling over a million.

Hyrule Warriors released already on Wii U about 1 year ago. Everyone who wanted the games has bought it! 3DS version is just a port.




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

"Everyone" I don´t think so, because is a very cool game, but few people buy a console for it, is not that kind of game.

So I can Imagine that 3DS with +50m userbase has many owners that would want the game but doesn´t have a wiiu. There is 5/6 times more people with a 3ds, so is easy that a milion seller on wiiu would become a million seller on 3ds too.

Pretty much everyone who owns, plays, and loves this game are on the same page here. For even the biggest Zelda fans, it's purely extra-curricular. 

I do hope the 3DS version might unlock some additional story content and rush battles though, or at least come at a discount to those who already own the WiiU version. Some online co-op / a tower defense mode would be awesome too.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

I can name you 5 different titles that were ports of previous console versions that all sold over a million copies on 3DS.  2 of them relating to Zelda.
