What confuses me about this entire NX situation is this:
How can Nintendo take the concept of the Wii U; which got criticism for being too ambitious and complicated for 3rd party devs, and instead of going back to a formula which they know works, take that concept even further and be praised...
Well, let's compare and contrast that number with Splatoon. Splatoon was a game that reached a little over 1m units sold worldwide when it's a brand new IP. At the time people didn't know how good it is, so they weren't flocking to the store to buy a wii u(of course, it's a hit now). With Zelda...
Good job on the summary, Ark.
So, Zelda has to sell at least 2m worldwide to be a sucess. Should be possoble since it's also being released on NX.
They also said they're researching VR? I gotta say, I'm not sold on the idea.
