AND Zelda Breath of the Wild on Switch has now passed Horizon Zero Dawn. Someone should bump that thead where the guy predicted it would win by sales and declared he was right like 3 weeks after Zelda launched :P Message | Report |

Nintendo has this at 2.76 as of March 31st, VGC had it at 2.07 as of April 2nd. Right now, it's at 2.91 as of May 27th. That's an additional 840k of sales. Add that to Nintendo's number of 2.74, that would put it at 3.60, not counting whatever digital sales it accumulated within that time. Let's say, hypothetically, that those 690k sales between Nintendo's 2.76 and our 2.07 are all digital (I highly doubt it, but let's go with it), that's 75% of its sales that would be physical. Let's say this game maintains that mark. Let's take this 2.91 mark we have no, divide it by 75%. That puts it at 3.88 million. So as of May 27th, 2017, combing physical + digital, Nintendo + VGC, that puts The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild somewhere between 3.60 - 3.88 million copies, sooo close to 4 million. Nintendo's next press release, can't come soon enough! Message | Report |

@Machina - I just tried looking for where I saw digital sales, but couldn't find the post or any articles. If I remember correctly though, BotW (NS) definitely sold more than 90k digitally. However, I would still say it's undertracked considering Nintendo has their numbers at 2.76 million "sold" by the end of FY. Message | Report |

@curl but considering the switch storage size, it is easy to assume the digital sales are low. For HZD the digital version has a bigger number for sure, i for example went full digital this generation and like me, others did too. My guess is that HZD is still ahead overall. Message | Report |

And I apologize, my initial post did come across a little harsh. I'm not surprised many people were quick to jump at me. I did attack Zelda and I didn't mean it that way. I just want to point out how the underdog stacked up against a juggernaut. A new IP DID afterall get the coveted #1 spot for that time frame. I mean, Zelda came out with a launch console and while Horizon came out on a console with 56 million users how many of those users are actually hardcore gamers??? I'd say over half of them (60-70% even) are casuals. I think Horizon would have sold the same whether the game sold on a 56 million console or 15-20 million. Just my thoughts. Message | Report |

Oh people, pleaseeee. Spare me the headache. I wasn't downplaying Zelda. I acknowledged the fact it sold well due to the fact it is the FIRST time an AAA+ game was released on launch day. How am I dumb for stating this??? It is FACT???? You don't think everyone would have bought a Last of Us or Uncharted game DAY 1 on a PS4 launch. For example, what if The Last of US 2 released on PS4's launch??? That would be HUGE!!! And please don't tell me it wouldn't be we all know it would. @Friendlyfamine: It hurts when someone criticizes your precious Zelda, huh? Bit honestly, it is you who sounds dumb right now. I wish I didn't have to write that but it's true. Install base helps but come on, fans of a given game will be there no matter what. Zelda fans have been buying the game while not even owning the system for christ's sake! So obviously, sales of a console don't even really matter. Uncharted 4 is HUGE and sold only 8-9 million on a 56 million userbased console. Why hasn't it sold 15-20 million??? Hmmmm....I'll let you figure that out. All I'm saying is that even though Zelda probably sold more quicker Horizon did exceptionally well against a hugely known IP. No one would have bought a PS4 for Horizon but yet people are buying this NEW IP game. Why??? Because it actually kicks butt! Note guys: I happen to actually like Zelda. I bought a GC for TP afterall. OoT and TP are the only games I finished. @curl-6: How much you wanna bet both games will actually more than likely sell the same amount. Horizon will easily sell in the 7-8 million LT. And OoT and TP both did around 7-8 million so yeah....No Zelda has ever sold 9+ million. Message | Report |

@StreaK So not only have you tried to downplay Wii Sports in the past but now you wanna try to downplay Zelda? To the point where you wanna willfully ignore facts like userbase differences just because you know if you don't ignore them then Horizon doesn't look like it "destroyed" it in anyway, or even come any close to doing so. Also lol @ "Horizon sold based solely on word of mouth", now you're just lying and making things up. The game had plenty of E3 showcases and a quick youtube and google search will show that it had plenty of tv ads as well, which obviously you didn't take a few seconds to check out because otherwise it wouldn't fit your agenda of trying to make Horizon look like the "more successful" game than Zelda.

Horizon destroyed it on ONE console and solely sold based on word of mouth and how awesome it is. A new IP like that! I think this is more impressive than Zelda because Zelda is already KNOWN so of course people will be buying the console for it. It's Nintendo's #1 franchise and it released on day 1. That's like Sony debuting the PS4 with an Uncharted or Last of Us game - no big deal!!! Message | Report |
