Nintendo shares the worldwide sales of Zelda Ocarina of Time remake

[Yrassinad]

Predicting 20 million is just... lol

Even 10 million is a smash hit for a remake.. unsure why he's hellbent on 20 million.

It might hit 20m in lifetime sales if it keeps this attach rate tbh. But obviously nowhere near the launch window, that would require like an 80% attach rate lol. Even MK8 isn't that high on Switch 1.

Why do you always lie, bro

Lie about what? This game outselling TOTK is highly unlikely. Any sales boost that will come to OOT post-launch (like from say, the movie) will likely apply to TOTK just as much.

You're too short to see the sales ceiling. The behemoths of the industry don't act like ordinary games do.
TOTK was the second game released late on a big console, Switch 2 is a console breaking records with third party support.
Ocarina of Time can sell as pure art, a system seller based on graphics alone, people buying it for nostalgia and because of its status as the greatest game of all time. The Legend of Zelda as an IP has grown a ton and next year there's a movie. If the movie is GOATED and it does 1b+ then that could change how OOT remake changes altogether and it's impossible to tell at all. They still haven't shown a trailer yet.

Lmao, imagine watching Geeks + Gamers, holy shit dude. I knew you were in that alt-right pipeline but watching Gamergate content creators in the big ol' 2026 is a low even for you.

Also, I'm happy OOT outsold Wolverine. It's the better and more deserving game for big sales, so not sure what you're even trying to say here. Wolverine was mid and forgettable and Nintendo's output this year has been much better than PlayStation's.

Anyway, all the shit you are saying also applies to TOTK. Anyone who's new to Switch can and will buy TOTK too. Anyone who goes and watches the Zelda movie can buy TOTK too. The idea that only OOT is going to benefit from these boosts while TOTK won't is fucking stupid. But TOTK has a 17m sales lead and is available on the $300 device with 155m+ install base while OOT isn't. Nintendo is naturally going to nudge whoever bought OOT in the direction of BOTW and TOTK.

Yeah? If Nintendo pays for ads that run before the Zelda movie take a wild guess what game they're gonna promote, moron.
Seriously, you gotta stop saying everything's stupid because you're not an intelligent person.

And guess which game people are going to get recommended on the eShop and buy when they're done with OOT, moron.

This guy just can't stop with third party support.

Dude, every single Nintendo console has had third party support, even the Wii U had it.

But having third party support and having PlayStation third party support is not the same, no matter how much you try to believe this.

If Nintendo actually had the third party support he's talking about and had a console with performance on par with PS5 I'd have dropped PlayStation years ago lol.

In 2027? 3D Mario and Pokemon.

One has not even been announced yet and why the fuck would someone who went to watch the Zelda movie and then played OOT because it was a pre-movie ad be interested in Pokemon lol? The obvious next recommendation for someone who jumped into Zelda with OOT would be BOTW and TOTK. Not fucking Pokemon. I sometimes go through that 10 game recommendation thing on the eShop and I've never gotten Pokemon as a recommendation despite having played multiple JRPGs on it.
