The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

[Flying Chickens]

Twilight Princess sold well on GameCube, and Galaxy and Brawl were both pick-up-and-play. The gamer audience was still on the GameCube while the casual audience picked up those two games. It's that simple. It's the exact same reason Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks didn't sell: The Nintendo DS was a bad system that had poor sales. Because of that, the games were unable to sell well because the system didn't sell well. Just like Skyward Sword, which sold poorly because the Wii sold poorly.
I don't see what's so hard to comprehend in this.

The DS sold incredibly well among gamers and non-gamers alike. You're making giant assumptions here, man.

You ever think that maybe PH and ST just sucked?

in addition to what everyone else said, the sales numbers i posted separate the wii and gamecube versions of twilight princess. the gamecube version did not sell well, and the wii version significantly outsold both it and windwaker. which was my point.


you are grossly exaggeration the size of the casual audience.

To be honest, I was really expecting this to be the part that someone called me out on being a troll.
I'm bored, and was worried about getting spoilers at some point in the discussion, so I just kind of derailed it with over-exaggerated falsities.

Don't worry, I still love all of you. <3

yes im implying that the 2nd best selling console of all time did not sell poorly.

Third. Not sure if it has a chance of beating PS1 at this point, since it's completely dead.

That doesn't affect your argument; just pointing that out.

You're right.

It's also worth noting that Sony didn't even sell half as many PSP's as Nintendo did DS's. With all the poop they're pulling with the Vita how do they expect to even sell what the PSP did?

Well, 3DS is likely going to sell much less than DS did as well.


SS's downward spiral in Japan continues, while Miyamoto considers collaborating with Retro on a Zelda. Interesting...
