But it also really shows just how much many of the earlier adopters were there for Zelda.

Yes, I was trolling you. My uncle, who's not even really a Zelda fan, just bought the game and a Switch a few days ago.

The fact that Zelda and Switch managed these numbers during MARCH is most impressive. Imagine what the numbers could be had the console been released in November....

It isn't really that different initally when you market to *adults* and make your system towards them. 

Nintendo marketed during the NFL Superbowl, which was big. They used commercials that were relatively cool and aimed at that audience. 

That audience, they're adults, they don't need mommy and daddy to buy them a system for Christmas, they have their own money. All you need to do is excite them, and Zelda: BotW did that. That's all you need. Those people can buy anything, doesn't matter if it's March or April or December. That's the bonus of being able to get into that audience. 

I didn't know I had an established character!

Crazy, just crazy. I totally underestimate how well it would perform.

Hopefully Nintendo also learns that Superbowl marketing is not a waste. And *do not* change the Switch marketing, keep marketing with modern music and relatively "hip" looking people (mainly grown males) playing the system.

That's the ticket Nintendo, don't fuck it up by trying to become a special snowflake again.

Holy shot Switch sold a lot better than I thought. And Zelda with that 100% attach rate. The Switch will be a beast this year.

Also the Wii U version did very well.

This is for the whole of March. VGChartz numbers is 1 week only.
