Is that April 2021 or 2022?

2022

Alrighty, so it's probably just shy of 3 million in total.

The sheer rejection of SS HD (the ultimate puZZelda) is a beautiful thing to watch. I just have to hope Nintendo actually learns a lesson here.

It still outsold the Wii game, and still continue to sell more, so i don't know what you are expecting. Anyway, it seems i'm the only one who can welcome the new things in Zelda while still enjoying the traditional.

I think a large potion of the fanbase has that opinion. It's always the extremes that are screaming the loudest. I think both SS and BOTW are great games for diametrically opposing reasons. Both can exist. Especially now that the worst parts of SS are gone.

That's how fanbases go, and I mean in the end I doubt that Nintendo thinks the investment for Skyward Sword wasn't worth it. Nearly 4 million sold on a HD version of a game is pretty profitable. 

Honestly that only means they see more reason to do HD versions of older games. Skyward Sword doing well is only good if you want to see Wind Waker and Twilight Princess



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?
