between NX and Wii U and the current hype for the game, i can see it hitting at least OOT numbers

I say is bare 5m minimum, everything between that and 10m is possible.

Still no.

It is still difficult, reception was and is terrific, but this isn't the first Zelda that was recieved well. And both Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess didn't make it. The games sell fairly consistently, and console install bases seemed to have only had a mild effect on sales. You can always count on around 5m as that seems to be the average for the big console entries throughout the series, and the Zelda cycle says that this should be one of the better selling ones (will be the first game on a new console), so 7-8m could be doable. 1.5-2m on WiiU, the rest NX.

I do hope I'm being conservative though, and this will finally be the one to break 10m.

If Splatoon can do 4.5 million then Zelda should do 10 million

^ Thankyou!

Between both consoles I'll say yes and depending on how NX takes off it could become the top selling game in the franchise, some of the changes in the game are also likely more appealing to the Japanese audience with the MH and DQ like quirks so that could be a key boost.

I'm going to say no, but being wrong wouldn't bother me in the slightest...
The hype for this iteration seems real...
BBC News always has coverage of E3, but it's usually one or two articles that provide a general overview of all the major developers and publishers...
This is the first time I've ever seen them dedicate an entire article to one game...
That could mean absolutely nothing in the long run, but it's more publicity than Nintendo has paid for since the launch of the Wii...

I doubt it, but you never know exactly what the NX is going to be.

Be happy with 5 or 6 Million. Be ecstatic with anything higher.

The last time there were lines at E3 for all three days was for the Wii. This title has a great chance of being one of the better selling titles in the series and is one of the reasons I'm optimistic that the NX will do a lot better then the Wii U did, or the Xbox One is currently doing.
