>In the US since pre orders went up the game has sold 100k+ copies already>In other countries the game is also topping the charts>This is the second time a game has ever achieved this number of sales (TotK on release week was the other)I think this is easily selling 5M+ on the first weekend Pretty impressive for a 1:1 remake
>>747661630Oh yeah, oot fans finally will play their favorite game
>>747661630lol is the alternative foil art still available?
>>747661630A whole 100k copies? Mind blowing. Nintendo must be celebrating this massive success. They've never sold 100k copies before. Do keep us updated, OP. These numbers are very important for video game discussion. We're all Nintendo shareholders here, after all.
Nintendo keeps on winning.
>>747661630How much did Sword and Shield sell?
>>747661630>5m+ first weekYeah no, every fag was jerking off Pokopia all over the internet just for me to find out it only sold 5 million copies life time
>>747661630Am I meant to be surprised that nu-nintendo slop eaters and nostalgia fags are buying something like the good goyim they are? If Nintendo sold a literal horse turd I'd fully expect these same people to pre-order it the moment it goes up.
>>747661630It's Zelda Ocarina of Time, the best game ever made in the history of gaming. Of fucking course it's going to sell like bread
>>747663570Uh oh melty
>>747663658Most OoT ever sold was 7 million with 3DS remake.
>>747663767I have far more important things to have a meltdown over then Nintendo's latest nostalgia money grab.
>>747663834You tried.
>>747663570Look man, it's $10 cheaper if you preorder and it comes with a special box. I'll play it at some point I might as well grab it at release.
>>747663987BotW and TotK sold 30 million each. You’re vastly overestimating OoT power here
This is selling purely because of breath of the wild. It's a game from a time when gamers were 1/10th of the numbers they are now, barely anyone claiming to be a zelda fan these days have played it, they have only played botw/totk. The sales numbers of the series back this up.They will probably even be disappointed it's not open world and assume it is based on what they see of hyrule field and will just performatively like it for a week because they know they are "supposed to" but never bring it up again after
>>747662126OoT has strong name recognition outside of Zelda fanbase.My colleague got Switch 2 because of the remake and he has never played older Zelda games.
>>747662630seethe harder snoy
>>747664071You tried.
>>747664074But we already saw the small Hyrule field on the direct
>>747661630>This is the second time a game has ever achieved this number of sales (TotK on release week was the other)Source for this?I believe it's uncommon for this to happen but how would you know this?
>>747661630>100K>GTA 6 preorders are easily 10 times that amount if not way moreLMAO. Is this supposed to be impressive for supposedly the Best game ever made?
>>747661630>still out of stock in AmazonIt has never been so owari...
>>747664074People also thought gamers would consider survival horror outdated and it wouldn't sell, then RE2 Remake became the best selling game in the series.
>>747661630I wanted to buy it together with that Zelda themed Switch 2 since I don't own console yet and seeing what a fucking scalper shitshow it is I just canceled my pre-order for remake...
>>747664074This is 100% going to. It’s going to feel like a step backwards to Botw-onlys. They’re going to see that they have to do a whole puzzle just so Link can get up on a ledge he could probably just jump and grab onto. No physics, no crafting, very few weapons and armor, no climbing and gliding and very lackluster side content. This isn’t new to Zelda. There’s a whole TV tropes page on this phenomenon called “Seinfeld isn’t funny”
Who can't wait for OoT to get a 70 for being clunky and old?
>>747664492RE2 and REmake 2 are far more different to eachother than Zelda OoT and Zelda OoT remake
>>747664519This post really didn't age well did it, archieve.com?
BOTW Zoomer fans are finally going to play a real Zelda game
>>747664331https://www.installbaseforum.com/forums/threads/ocarina-of-time-market-watch.4784/
>>747664653Because Ocarina already had a normal 3rd person action-adventure camera system. The standard hasn't changed.
>>747661630All me btw.
I'm just going to my nearest Wallmart on release day as soon as the store opens and buying it there, God blessing I will get the foil version.
zelda is back baby
100k seems low. I know switch 2 games are selling terribly but I expected this to do good.
>>747666645100k+ just on amazon and just for physical copies for one week is pretty high
>>747665714Well it also controls and shoots a lot differently as well. In that sense it was brought to more or less the standard of its contemporaries. Now it played more like Dead Space(Not quite as fast as RE4 OG). However OoT is still the same game, something like a dedicated jump button is nothing in the grand scheme of things. These Zelda players got used to so much and now they don’t have that.
No Master Quest? No buy No Ura Zelda? No buy i will play this game on an emulator so i can play it for free
>November 5th is MondayFor what purpose?
>>747661630>Pretty impressive for a 1:1 remakeSorta, but in reality they radically transformed the gamefeel into something next gen.
>>747666842>i will play this game on an emulator so i can play it for free>on an emulator
>>747663658>the best game ever made in the history of gaming**In 1998.
>>747666985*To this day.
>>747666801But in terms of game design, it's more similar to the original RE2 than it is to RE5/RE6. with limited ammo, puzzles, and backtracking. It's the same kind of situation here. Ocarina is not a worse game, it's a different kind of game.
>>747663570haha true>>747664050haha uh ohhhh stinkyyy
>>747666881But is not?
>>747662630It will outsell GTA VI every week until Rockstar and Sony go bankrupt this year. Mark's my words, snoy.
>>747667361Meds
>>747667286Ah nevermind I was looking at October. Thursday is ok.
>>747667361Least cultist tendie
>>747667089The thing is that people didn’t like RE5/6 as much as the older games because it lost that fear factor. They are supposed to be horror games. But Zelda is about adventure and when compared to the grandness of Botw and TotK that adventure feels a whole lot more subdued. They know this. There’s a reason they change entry into Hyrule field to match BoTW in the remake by adding a hill so you can over look it.
>>747661630this thing is gonna hit 10M units before the end of the FY I think, despite being released in november. The interest is very high
>>747669434It will hit 100m units this week, snoy.
Why should I care about sales? This is like the 50th thread you've made about this. It doesn't impact the gameplay.
>>747669689>100mit’s hitting 500m due to such high interest you pajeet snoyshill
>>747669890Tendies love to jerk off about sales instead of playing games
>>747661630thats pretty low for supposedly best game ever made and one that baldillenials are drooling over
>>747661630I was turned off by the equip system so hard. The one thing that they really need to stop fucking doing.
>>747664695Whatever you say, saar.
In canada the preorder comes with the normal foil version plis a replica N64 case for it. EB games canada exclusive apparently.
>>747670891Better pic of the gold foil N64 edition of the remake.
>>747667845>The thing is that people didn’t like RE5/6 as much as the older games because it lost that fear factorThe only RE game that had the atmosphere to have a proper fear factor was REmake, even the original game was too bright and the dialogue too cheesy to be considered a true horror game, and by RE3, you already have Jill doing cool dodges and throwing one liners at Nemesis. Granted, RE5 and 6 learned the wrong things from RE4 and got away from the survival horror genre as much as they could.
Am I not going to be able to walk into my local Walmart at 5am and pick this physical copy up? Why would I need to order it online if so?
>>747670891>check GamePlanet>no OoT preorder whatsoever in the website>they're more focused on GTAVI and fucking FC27I also went to the store this last weekend and they had nothing related to OoT, so I guess I'm out of luck until the game releases. Amazon is out of the question, it instantly sold out and I don't want to risk not getting a foil box if I buy it there. You leaves are getting some nice stuff at least.
>>747671312it has an exclusive foil cover you mouth breathing retard
>>747670891I checked the list in my country at best I can buy a version that comes with the Ocarina, I just assumed that that was standard everywhere, it's also retailer exclusive for some reason, I don't get it.
>>747671606Europe versiona come with either the spirit stones or the plastic ocarina, depending on country. All versions of the preorder include the holofoil package that US gets, they just get a bit more swag with it.
>>747671519So the physical copy day 1 at Walmart won't have the foil?
>>747666985On nintendo console*Half-Life, StarCraft, Baldur's Gate, Thief and Lineage came out in 98. Zelda is a silly little children's game by comparison. RE2, MGS, Abe's Exoddus, Railroad Tycoon 2 and Unreal from the same year were also much better games. American game journalists hyping up some kiddy game that barely anyone had played or heard about for the next ten years as the greatest thing ever was probably the most ridiculous and bizarre occurance in the history of gaming.
>>747671860
>>747671860Ultima 7 was a few years earlier and beats it in story and interact ability.
>>747671860/thread
>>747671808My country has a bundle with the playable ocarina, not that figure, I wouldn't mind the stones though, or the one thing they should have done, a gold cart.
>>747661630Switch 2 has nothing interesting going on so this nostalgia bait will sell 15 million+ easily
>>747671858It will, people just want to make sure they don’t get shafted
>>747671860It was very hyped at the time, N64 desperately needed another hit after Goldeneye to move units with Playstation dominating and journalists went to bat for them. I never thought it was anywhere near as important as Super Mario 64
>>747671860Slav moment
>>747662630100k *PLUS*
>>747663264The install base is 23M.5M is almost GTA-tier attach rate.
>>747672663yes its hard being white we know
>>747671860>Half-Life, StarCraft, Baldur's Gate, Thief and Lineage came out in 98. Zelda is a silly little children's game by comparison.I had time for all of these and played them all on release, as well as zelda. I nearly failed out of univeristy in 1998 but that was legitmately the best year of gaming, all time. An N64 was only $129 at the time Zelda was release, for a PC masterace gamer it would be weird not to also have both a Playstation and/or an N64. (Consoles cost as much as a fucking soundcard alone). Most PCfags I knew had both consoles plus their gaming rig.
>>747661630Still not beating GTA6, tendie.
>It's only selling because of BotW >It's only selling because tendie cult>It's only selling because name recognition>It's only selling because oldfag fans>It's only selling because newfag fansSome anons are really fishing for reasons to claim that the game is not going to be a success.
>>747673632and yet all of those are true
>>747672908You can see why 5m+ first week is retarded right
>>747661630Who cares? Only thing that matters is I’m not buying it lol imagine paying for jeetmakes
>>747673078I was still a 9 year old babu when OoT was released, and I'm the prime example of the kid waking up on Christmas morning and finding his brand new Nintendo 64 with a copy of Ocarina of Time under his tree because he watched the OoT ad and REALLY needed to get that game. It is definitely one of the fondest memories I have in terms of gaming. And most of my school friends also had N64s, so it was a very good time overall.
>>747664653Remake 2 isn't even survival horror. It's just a TPS like RE4. It plays nothing remotely like the original.
Sadly it will gets memory-holed quickly after its release
>>747664519>TVTropes
>>747674558No shit Sherlock games are called "flavor of the month" for a reason, more so for single player games
>>7476729085M at launch sounds about right for the big years end game, I'm guessing lifetime sales of around 30 mil, although it depends on how many reviewers decided to take it down a peg for their own ego, probably a lot.
>>747674468braindead post detected
>>747661630>scalpers even bought out the ocarina toytruly retarded considering all storefronts are probably cancelling those bot orders anyway. Im going to my local gamestop today to see if I can pre-order anything there
>>747674682Are you being intentionally retarded? Breath of the Wild sold about 3 mil at launch, it's currently at more than 30 mil, is that game flavour of the month? why would Breath of the Wild have staying power but Ocarina of Time won't?
>>747674706>30millLOL
>>747674796Game is open world with plenty of shit to do. Oot is a more polished, linear story but shorter.
>>747674804It's not like it would be breaking any records.
>>747674895And? Mario Kart 8 has sold more than Mario Kart World. Mario Odyssey sold 30 million. Pokemon Sword and Shield sold 1 mil less than Scarlet and Violet.
>>7476632645 million sold in half a year is not bad at all. Zelda will do more than that and might even match it in its first month or two.
>>747675031Wat is your point again? Sales or that games get forgotten quickly
>>747674796I don't think you understand what flavor of the month means. Do you still see people actively discussing Breath of the Wild daily? Or streamers actively playing the game by the hundreds? It has sold over 30 million units because it's an evergreen title released along the Switch 1, which was already over 8 years ago. Ocarina of Time has the advantage of being "fairly priced" at $60 along the reputation of being the highest rated and one of the most important games in gaming history, but it's still a single-player game that will have its discussion naturally die in a matter of weeks regardless if it continues selling also as a Switch 2 evergreen.
>>747673926>It's only selling because everyone wants to play it
>>747675095Zelda is not as popular as pokemon
>>747674796because it’s literally a remake, it’s already got its flowers 20 years ago and isn’t even the first remake. Star Fox remake died conversation after a week because surprise surprise it’s the same fucking game again
>>747661630hey, at november 5th that means it's going to be before the cutoff for The Game Awardsit could win GOTY
>>747676751>remake>goty>in the same year as GTAVIlollmao tendies live in another plane of reality as always
>>747676751>1:1 remake>winning game of the yearyou know embarrassing that would look
>>747676823GTAVI looks pretty bad to be fair, critics might decide they hate it
>>747676980I really hope youre just baiting because youre going to be really really sad in december
>>747661630Have to agree. I wasn't going to buy this because it's 1:1, but I decided to buy the physical version, since it'll probably hold it's price for a long time.This will be very front loaded, I doubt it will reach even half of BotW LTD.
>>747676751What makes you think I care about the nepobaby's awards?
>>747677165Anywhere even close to half of BotW's sales would still be double the N64 and 3DS versions combined.
>>747676823>30 fps in 2026HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>747671808>>747672359>>747670891>americans get nothing
>>747678919>acting like most GOTYs didn’t run in 30fps when they won
>>747678919thats the average experience on Switch 2 though
Outside of this shithole people are really excited for it.
>>747680352Good thing OoT remake will be 60fps.
>>747680491This shithole is a microscopic minority, they're just stray dogs barking at the void while the rest of the world enjoys their games in peace.
It probably won't even 3 million. There's simply no audience for it. Old skool Zelda fans are perfectly happy with Harkinian and zoomers don't give a single fuck about Zelda outside of BOTW/TOTK.
>>747680876zoomerGODS play actually well designed and told games like Darksiders, not jeetshit like Goylda.
>>747680809Yeah, remember when Shazam retards were trying to predict Elden Ring was gonna flop?Lmao.
What else do Switch 2 owners have to buy?
>>747679824I dunno Astro Bot won and didn't run like shit. Baldur's Gate 3 won and didn't run like shit.E33 won and didn't run like shit.
>>747681414>E33>didn't run like shit
>>747681414last time nintendo won the VGAs their last game was 30fps
>>747681645it's 60fps on console, that counts as not running like shit
>>747662482all first print runs are foil. foil won't really be "rare" but still cool
>>747681259>Fortune's Weave in 3 days>Switch Sports Resort next month>Metroid Ravenous in January>Kirby and the World Beyond on Spring>Xenoblade Genesis Soon™>The Duskbloods as soon as FromSoft stops eating their snot and do some actual work>Star Fox, Splatoon Raiders and Rhythm Heaven Groove if you haven't gotten those yetI don't know you, but I'm building a healthy collection of Switch 2 games.
And I’m one of them :)Shit is going to be so comfy
mfw next month is not november yet
>>747682601what to play until then?I still have to play a bunch of Super Mario games that I’ve missed but idk
>>747682601>mfw it's okay because Fire Emblem comes this week
